Hello from Los Angeles again

[mason79]

don't know who is here anymore, sold my 79 sf 16 years ago, went with a fj1100, for a few months, looking to get back to the first beast ever made, and made to last forever!

Hello from Florida, Welcome Back! You are right about these bikes lasting forever, I have a 79F with 250K+ miles and a 79SF with 150K+.

Howdy Mason79,,,,long time,,,,so lots of members dissapearing but a few of us are still around as these bikes were made to outlast us with good maintenance and repair. I am down in San Diego part of the year and in Pa. the rest of the year. Have a xs1100 and xj1100, both running decent. The members still on have a ton of knowledge of these bikes and it definitely comes in handy at times. There are still a few xs rallies, Colorado and Xs NE in the summer, spring months...Some of the old time members are up your way,,,,,Roo, 3Phase, probably others but not sure what part of LA they are in. Keep on Yamaha Xs rolling,,,,,,Mike (Soccer4m, Socer4m) in S.DIego and Pa
