    I just about fell out of my chair laughing at this person.


    "Hello,I notice you have a 1100

    I have a 1979 Yamaha 1100 XS
    Was told at a cycle shop that the 1979 Yamaha 1100 xs
    is the only Bike Yamaha ever made thats pushing over
    309 Horse power.
    too me This engine looks like a 4 cylinder car engine
    strapped to a motor cycle frame. One heavy bike.
    Talking about feeling the power between your legs I'm telling ya!
    This is the bike.

    I was wondering if you can give me some feed back?"

    "What they do have is an implacable, unrelenting presence and movement that bespeaks massive power lurking behind paint and chrome. They don't wail like a screeching ninja, the don't rumble like a harley. They just growl like a spactic, stressed out badger waiting to rip your face off and eat your soul." Trainzz~RIP~

        I read through the original post and I think it was a troll/spammer.
        Everybody else ignored him.
