What is the difference between the 78 and 78E? Were there two models? I thought every 78 was an E. Or was there a non US model that lacked the E designation?

[fredintoon]

what the E?

Hi 2fast,
the E suffix is Yamaha's way of saying " it's a '78 "
All '78 Yamahas were suffixed E and the Special versions were suffixed SE.
Marque snobs would claim that it's the '78 that's redundant.
Fred Hill, S'toon.

As far as I know there where no 78 specials. The special was introduced in 78 but was an F model denoteing it as a 79. If there is a bike designated as a 78 EF, Then somebody has got creative with the paperwork, or, this is XStreamly rare and would be worth BOOOKOOS bucks.

The XS1100 is the European model they were made both in 1978 and 1979.
Go to this link it show the model id chart scoobes posted it earlier on this thread.
