Hey there Goodoleboy,
If you can't get there till Monday, and you have plenty of paper and ink for your printer, then go to the following link:
Yamaha Parts Catalog
Click on the "ONLINE PARTS CATALOG" box in the left blue collumn, In next window, under CATALOGS, click on drop down menu, and select Motorcycles, then wait, when the list of years pops up on the left side, then click on 1979, then on XS1100SF, and then click on each subheading, and wait, then you'll see a diagram in the window on the right, then start printing until you get all the sections done, you can then use this as a guide for recognizing parts when they are not on the bike.
I, too, had only basic skills working on cars doing basic tuneups, and maintainance stuff, also 1 high school auto shop class, and then a rebuild of an old V-8, but never experience with these sophisticated bike engines. I had parked mine for over 8 years due to a bad 1st and 2nd gear problem, learned how to fix it from these pages and links without having to totally tear apart the engine. I did have to do a top end job, new pistons and rings, but was able to accomplish it myself, aside from the machining work! You can do it, and we are all here to help you in anyway you need!!!! NOW GO GET THAT BIKE!!!!!!
