Sounds good, but I need some time...
I would be up for a ride or get together, unfortunately the bike is still not ready. I'm embarassed as to how long it's taking me, but there is progress, just slow. If there was an opportunity later in the summer, I'd be up for it. Would give me a deadline to shoot for!

Money can't buy happiness, but it can get you an XS11 and that's a start.

That's definitely a possibility. I'm think I'm close to having it running right, but it would be great to get some hands on help dialing it in.Chuckster

I’ll be coming if my Colorado trip falls though but, hopefully, I’ll be riding out there for the first 10-12 days of August.

Woodstock on 8/16 sounds like a good excuses for a ride. I’m planning on going if it doesn’t end up raining all day. Will I meet some of you there?
The national swap meet in Davenport Iowa isn’t all that far from Chicago. You could give it a try. Go here http://www.chiefblackhawk.org/ and click on Swap Meet. You would want to spend the night if you want to see the antique flat track races Friday evening.#1 ’79 XS11 Special
