          Very funny...I could never move a bike inside a hatch back; but using a convertable...now there's an option.

          Hi Kat, I won the auction. Remember me; we met at the Talihina, Oklahoma rally last month with my twin brother Steve. He was riding the '75 Honda Gold Wing; and I had the fuel injected XJ1100.

          It may take a month or so before I can pick up this bike. My son (and family) are stationed at Ft. Gordon, GA about 150 miles away from North Charleson. He's driving to Houston for the Christmas holidays, so I expect to see the bike in December. I'm wondering what I bought?

          P.S. My son will probably use his pickup or rent a trailer for transport; I'll let him know it's possible to use his Suzuki hatch back. Pictures are worth a thousand words.

          I got the bike for $334.99.

                  It wouldn't be an actual one... but if anybody even knows what the scheme of colors would be and where.. I would like to build one some day. I saved pics of the one off Ebay that Stan just bought.. but is that where all the gold goes?

                  Working on a deal right now to get the prototype. 'Cause everybody needs three Xj's, right?

                      Tod . You're my hero .

                      Just noticed in the above XJ1100ML info : where I had "Made" it is actually the range of serial numbers used so its not the number made. Sorry

                          Indeed

                          I rode for half a season before even seeing a single other XJ11 . It was only through this site that I met any other XJ11 riders and finally saw their bikes . But a Midnight ???
                          If they truley exist - I wish I could just find out about one !

                            I wonder if the paint scheme would be the same as on the XJ650's?
