i should prolly not mention that the PO put pink/purple lights under the gas tank and rear fender....as soon as the tank comes off for painting, those lights go, for now i just have them disconnected from the battery, so there isn't an oops moment with them on.1980 XS 1100 Special (working to be my daily ride)

For posterity you know.
I would like to see it in full regalia, lights and all before you change anything.
Maybe some of the ladies here could get some good ideas.

before you take the tank off, could you please reconnect those pink & purple lights and take some after dark shots to send to the list?

Actually... it looks kinda cool... and I don't like pink... but then... a guy riding a pink bike is either very secure in his masulinity... or his femininity...

Seems I destroyed one of her shirts in the washer..... so she returned the favor.
I made sure to wear the pink shirt all the time, so she wouldn't think she got over on me.
But that one guy kept following me around the mall all day..............
