    Hi All,

    I'm in the UK. I used to have a 1978 E, I've now got a 1981 LH so I'll be looking for some advice.

    I work in the States quite frequently and would like to meet-up with some of you some time, though I'll be in a rental car.

    Cheers!

    Welcome back.

    I doubt you have reason be in my neck of the woods, but you are welcome here in northern Michigan.

        Also in Pennsylvania half a year,,,,about 2 hours from Ranger who is near Pittsburgh,,,just write in the forum for any advice from the seasoned xs vets....my buddy Rupert lives right above Los Angeles and has had xs1100's for years.

              Mike, I go to Ohio a couple times a year. Usually passing real close to you. Crossed Pymatuning Lake last month. Maybe we could meet for lunch sometime. I would however, be on the Honda ST1100, as the XS has just been sitting in the garage.
