  • New XS owner

    Just got me a new bike! 1980 XS1100. Came with front fairing and Vetter luggage. Started taking the bike apart and building it up how I want it. Anyone wanting front fairing or luggage? I look forward to learning a lot from you guys.

          I know member TheFrugalTech is looking for the Vetter luggage rack. Not sure if he's interested in the luggage itself though.

          Your picture is kinda small, but it looks like yours is a Standard?

                  It's a standard. hopefully it wont disappoint too many of you but I plan on semi-cafe-ing it. Lower it, probably lose some of the rear section. Not too sure yet. Just wanna get it ready in time for Bikes, Blues, and BBQ at the end of the month. Any of yall make the trip up here for that?
