They wanted to make sure one of those cylinders was getting good exhaust flow I guess!!!

The wrong box, and as it's an XS11, the wrong forum.
Hi Brian,Originally posted by b.walker5 View Post
the model looks to be an XS11SG except the megaphones are a lot longer than the ones on North American models.
The title on the box is mixed up. An XS750SE would be a 1978 not a 1980.
So what's wrong?
The post is in the wrong forum, the model is in the wrong box and the box title has a typo.
Didja buy it?
Is it the prize?

What!? You've never seen a XS11 'frankenbike'...
It's mostly a special, but the headlight ears were rusty so the PO painted 'em black, custom paint on the tank (none of the specials had graphics), and couldn't find a good special exhaust but did find a nice standard one...
Somebody here owns this bike
Ok, the 'paperwork' is suspect, but that wouldn't be the first time for that either..
