Hope you are all nice guys and girls on here!
As long as your name isn't Jack! With a userhandle like yours, and you're asking US if we're nice??
Welcome to the big side of the pond. Most of us are nice, but the chap that goes by Prometheus likes to stir things up a bit, but it's all in good fun. Why his humor is almost as dry as your countrymen!
SO....what's the news, did you just get a new XS1100, or have you had one for a while, but want some other tech advice? Show us some photos, we love to voice our opinions!
Cheerio!

Ya know... I saw his opening greeting and thought to myself...
"Alright... a target!"
Then I scrolled and started reading...
only to find that T.C. has already issued a warning and ruined my day.
Welcome, Butcher.
Which year/model do you have?
(If you've customized... please post photos so I can steal your ideas)

Hey prometheus578, this is not the first time i have heard of you, there was someone i was speaking to about this site about 3 months ago, and you and her did not get on so well. Short of it is, she said that you treat her like crap. But i thought i would come and see if she was telling the truth, i dont cast judgment without first speaking to the offender.
So, did you rearly tell her that she had A FACE LIKE A DROPED BIKE??
Hows the XS11 sidecar outfit coming along or did you decide to butcher it.
Hey! don't you go upsetting folk on here, you know what you're like LOL

Yes, but in a nice way....
Actually, Butcher, your quote is incorrect.
All I said was... "Your seat has too much stuffing, and your rear end is sagging." (I believe her bent frame was due to a medical problem, so I didn't want to mention that. Same for that valve of hers that leaks gas)

I think the yanks have a bit more tollerance to anuses like me, lol.
I still havent started on it yet, but i have bought anouther xs1100 special that will be the donor for the sidecar outfit, then all i will do is rebuild the standard xs that cam with the sidecar.

I'm sure you'll find that there are limits here as it's generally considered an old fart/family atmosphere, but a good ribbing now and then seems to be quite acceptable especially if your username begins with a "P" and ends with "rometheus578"
