    "Far right of the pic.....I do have to wonder who would have an XS1100 Martini on this side of the pond."

    That's not a Martini, mate!




    This is a Martini.

    So far, I haven't been able to detect anyone in the US or Canada with one. Anyone have any more info?

            Hey, look at the wheels! It's a Japanese bike, so it COULD be a Martini, just not a Yamaha. Did they do Honda or Suzuki's?

                                                    John and I have been working on this one over the last few weeks (months?) Stripped him down to bare frame and everything is being polished, painted or replaced. He's now going back together. John will hopefully be able to paint the tank and sides today.

                                                    And hey! no pockets of divorce dust in this project. lol
