    Sold my XS 1100 after 29 years

    Well I sold my XS1100 SG after 29 years of great riding had fun meeting other XS riders,sharing stories,saw both coasts and a lot in between but the old bike had to go..time for a new Wing
    This thing has an on board air compressor,am/fm 6 cdchanger with built in cb and scanner to listen in on rr frequences and a ham band. With reverse and an 1800 cc engine,a rear camera,18 inch screen for the gps,a trailer with optional hook up for a second trailer..running lights and the wheels are spinners so I look like I am moving when stoped..heated grips and foot pegs,a cool air system to blow if it gets hot plus the optional heated air vents..this is a one of a kind machine but now I am ready to move on to the Wing World..better than Disney....WHAT THE F... Holy Cheep Chit..I've been sleepwalking again and having a nightmare....sorry..ignore this post.

    Does it have an automatic center stand too??? Just a FYI, they aren't capable of leaning as far as the XS in the corners.

        Forgot about that..one click of a toggle..haven't figured out which one yet but it has it...works great too..900 lbs lifted right up..well at least on the show room floor.

          I thought they had that for an option. Do whatever makes you happy, you only live once.

              Wow! That's like an amusement park on 2 wheels! How in the world can you concentrate on the road with all that stuff on there!?!? So, all that stuff on your blog about the XS being so wonderful was just temporary?

              Honestly, I can see the draw of those bikes. It's like a tricked-out sleeper semi on 2 wheels. The microwave and washer/dryer are on the left rear quarter-panel, right?? Enjoy your new toy!

                    If something keeps me from being able to hold up a bike, I refuse to go with a trike. What's the use? You're just as well getting a convertible car. You don't get to lean any more..

                      Man, that looks to be as much fun as riding around in a Toyota Prius convertable! Probably gets as good of gas mileage. Thats not even a motorcycle! Its a monstrosity!
