    Hello Guys (and gals)

    Hello.

    I'd just like to introduce myself.
    My name is Pete, I'm from the UK, and I've joined your site because I've just bought a rather poorly-looking 1100 Maxim, and might just need some help with locating parts and restoring my bike to good working order. I intend to use it as my daily driver to and fro work.

                  Hehe no I don't have a turbo 11, I have a turbo Hayabusa.

                  I've been working on my Maxim this afternoon, and I am compiling a list of stuff I need to find for it. It's previous owner had a pair of dogs that must not have liked it too much, as they have eaten away part of the seat, both nearside indicators, some of the loom, No1 and No4 coil lead and spark plug caps and the front brake hose.

                  I'll post some pics soon.

                      .. ah yes the plug wires and caps they're my favorite parts to eat also, fruity yet bovine
                      you will find that ebay is your freind. there are a bunch of parts up for auction every day. just find your way to ebay motors then motorcycle parts then type in the letters xs
                      this will give you the broadest search that i know of
