    There are 2 or three.... Midnights listed. One was actualy repainted in that paint that changes color and the start asking at $1700 or so. There is a 850 triple and a XS 1100 motor also listed.

      --------------------------------------------------------------in the pic's, the pic with the speedo/tach, there is a blue thingie, it looks tackie, but, has anyone found a good way to connect the two front forks air stems together, to keep even preasure to both forks ?
      like on a goldwing, instead of having two seprate readings, convert it to one stem, to check fork air preasure ? i've often thought of this, just havent got around to connecting the 2 valve stems, and adding one in the center to make a one 1 stem fills both air fork cylenders !
      anyone else ever think of this ? or do it, sucessfully ?

        Progressive makes an air balance kit for forks. Dennis Kirk has them for about $20 I think.

          Air fork balancing

          Yep - I've got some sort of aftermarket kit when I bought the 1.1s back in '92.

          No idea who made it tho' - but kits are out there.

          Beware of permanently installed pressure gauges like mine has though. Works well, but the gauge face is getting a bit rusty these days!
