  • 1980 xs1100G Work in progress

    I was at work one day, and i drove by this delapidated looking bike in front of somones house, a sign that says 150 dollars OBO. Cool, i thought, i've always wanted a bike, and i dont have the most impressive bank accounts so how could i go wrong. I bought it later that day, got it home and running in about an hour. It needed lots of cosmetic and some mechanical help. I wanted to show everyone out there my bike and maybe get some feedback about styling, mechanics, or anything the forum has to offer. xs11.com has been a great resource for technical info so i want to show you guys what i'm working on. Heres what i've done so far.

    New handelars
    new ignition coils from yamaha dealer.
    Headlight
    4 new blinkers
    new tires
    new yamaha intake boots/manifolds (160$ YIKES)
    Re-built master cylinders and 3 calipers
    cleaned carbs and gas tank+valves.
    getting ready to paint the tank, side covers and emblems
    New seat off ebay
    and the list continues.

    I'm going to try to put a few pictures up. thanks agian for the technical help and hope you enjoy my rusty monster xs.
