  • I found it!

    Seems there was some debate going on in an earlier post whether or not this actually existed...







    And it looks to be still up for grabs....Midnight Special

    Well... not so much an 1100 Midnight Special as it is the 1100 Midnight Maxim that is mythic...

    But that isn't a bad deal for the Midnight...

      That would be an XS1100 Midnight Special. A fairly known entity and a not so rare piece. However, the XJ1100 MNS is the one that has never been seen to date.

      And now I see how quick a Kat is over an old dog like me.
      Life is what happens while your planning everything else!

      When your work speaks for itself, don't interrupt.

          I remember someone posted pics of one one time, and turns out it was just a special with an assortment of XJ parts thrown on. So, the myth continues...

          Try your hardest to be the kind of person your dog thinks you are.

          You can live to be 100, as long as you give up everything that would make you want to live to be 100!
