After 3 years of asking and asking I was finally able to buy my father's 1980 Yamaha XS1100 Special!!!. He was the 2nd owner and the bike is 100% original it even has the tool kit. And it is in PERFECT condition. It has 12,670 miles on it and runs like a raped ape. I had just purchased a 1980 Yamaha XS850 Special 2 months ago so we can ride however he decided to get a Venture. I paid $1500 which is what he paid. I am 20 and within the past year I have went from my 1st bike a 1975 Honda CB550 Four to the 850 and now to the 1100. There is no comparison between the 1100 and the other's. As soon as I can figure it out I will post a pic.
