    This site is the @#$%.

    I have been a xs1100 special fan since working at a local bike shop in the late 70's. Got to test ride all new bikes cuz i was the only one in shop with licensce. from crate to street it was great. Just wanted to thank you guys for all the useful info on here. I have yet to have a question that I could not find an answer too. I have been bobbing 650's for awhile and finally got an opurtunity to get three 1100's. again thanks for all the help you guys are the tops....

      Welcome to the site Gonzo, and your right this site is the @#$%.

      Pretty much any question you have, crap man ANY question you have about an XS can be answered here.

      Great bunch here for the better part. However if I try to answer one of your questions you better check with someone else.

      I'm just the fluff master.

      Hope you got a good sense of humor 'cause we have a good time here while we learn, well I do anyway.

      BTW mro...I had to read SeXs..seSX...SXes a couple of times to get it right.

          Most here use photobucket then post pics from that
