    electrical parts

    Will all the electrical parts off a 79 xs11 special fit on a 80 xs11 special ?

    The 80 will have some components that the 79 doesn't. 4 way flashers, and the remotely located Main fuse, but other than that I don't know of any other differences. I'm sure that there are some, but I can't think of them right now.

      One differerance is the right hand control on 79' has light switch, 80 and above head light comes on after start.
      There are a few other differences too, but right now just got home from being the menace and can't think of them

        Register to use my XS Part Finder

        Click on 'Part Finding' then 'Donor Bike Parts', this lets you pick a donor XS11 model and a recipient model and will show you all the parts on a microfiche that have the same part number.

        If the part numbers match you can be sure they will interchange.

          My 79 Special doesn't have this "light switch". Could this be a Euro model thing?

            The 78 had the light switch. My 79 doesn't have it either. Don't know about models for other countries.
