    good morning

    I'm working with my "smartphone ", so please bear with me. Trying to find out how to add pictures of my bike. I will get it, eventually. It's 1980 xs1100 g. Has factory installed fairing and bags. I've had the seat redone. Looks great when cleaned up, then it rains. Hahaha. I will visit later, work starting. Have a great day.

    Do you have a photobucket account? Photobucket is the easiest way. Copy the IMG code and paste it in your post.

              Broken Bow is way down in the south east corner of the state. He's just a few miles from Texas, Louisiana, and Arkansas.

              I've heard they brew some pretty good stuff back in those hills.

                good morning all

                I live outside of Mena, Ar. do not know why it said Broken Bow. I edited profile. I`ve been doing repairs on one of my bags, the hinge broke off the lid. plastic epoxy and some fiberglass strands should do the trick. I am also trying to locate a right side cover, broke it several years ago, repaired it with JB weld, did not hold. So, I lost a piece that had broken off. I have the 79 " parts bike" and will trade parts to someone who can use them. I also have a couple Vetter fairings from that era. Parts are really getting hard to locate. I`m using the radio housing off of my other bike (79 GS1000E ) and have made a plaster mold so I can make another housing with fiberglass. I`ve seen xs11`s riding through the valley and in town, from time to time, never had the opportunity to talk. Have a wonderful day, ride safe.

                  Been there a few times riding. Been down Talimena Drive several times. The road is usually clogged up with Harleys forming a rolling roadblock though.

                  Check your PMs.

                    This is a really great place to ride. I'm at the bottom of Rich mountain, it's about 45 miles to ride around the block. I rode 100% bike for over 5 years, enjoyed every mile. Came across bear and lots of deer while riding. Stay safe. Ps. I try to stay away from the mason jar until the ride is over.
