  • My XS1100SG, finally using a good camera



    I finally got around to taking a photo with a camera a whole lot better than my cellphone cam. You can see, I've got a lot of polishing to do on that engine and rims but otherwise, I'm pretty happy with my 28 yr old bike.

    Don't worry...those oil stains in the pavement are from before I went in and replaced the head gasket and valve cover gasket. NO MORE LEAKS!!!

      If I can make at least one person smile, or pee their pants a little, or maybe spit out their drink; then my day is not wasted.
