Gods honest truth,, i just got a 79 xs special, with 25,ooo miles, for $100.00,,YES,, it runs,, i did put in new plugs, had 1 lite not working, but other then that,, is 100% good. and yes, it had a clear title and the kid even threw in a fullface helmet. Havent been riding in over 20 years,, i am really loving getting back out on the road again,,i am wanting new tires and shocks, but that is no biggy,, was out riding today,, was great!!

WOW Dave that IS a deal. If you come across another one let me know.
Where, in TX, are you?
You should plan to come to the TeXSive Rally 2003 in Septimber at Kerrville State Park. I will be posting more info in a few months.

what a deal! I was lucky also, My neibor gave me a 1981 special that had sit in a garge for a decade. I had to do $300.00 worth of fuel system work to get her running right. Spent $1000.00 on it in the first year, paint, tkat fork brace, tires,battery, etc.
This year is the seat recovering, SS brake lines, progressive fork springs, and a lot of polishing.
Here are my before and after pictures:

It is Amazing what a little paint & elbow grease will do for an old XS11.
good luck with your bike, may it roll many milesLast edited by Bill__Woods; 02-13-2003, 10:34 PM.Bill Woods
