Congrats!! This site has been a god send to all that find it I believe.

You certainly created a unique exhaust system there. Although I am not fond of the frame cutting stuff, that seat looks very nice!!!

Good job on the bike, hope it brings you many miles of happiness.

Pretty cool ride you got there

Is that a F/18 Hornet exhaust?

I took the turn outs off and welded the pipes you see there to the head pipe. Like the added rain flaps? they sound really cool at idle and are load as s@#$ cruising. I really need to baffle them, they are a bit much at 2AM going home from work, needless to say what my neighbors think.

Hi Ron,
not quite my style but nice bike and a great BRG paint job too.
But Gawd man! How tall are you? That horkin' great XS11 looks like a 250 with you sat on it.

[gonzo]

too tall! Its really tuff finding something to fit and be cumffy on for long spells. I like the crusers, short stints are for the bobbers I put together. Guess just tryin not to get old, I like to be seen and heard. cant miss me on this XS. I would really like to put forward controls on but cant afford em right now.

Nice bike man. Looks like you need to move it to the top of your signature now.

[gonzo]

did just that. again cant thanks you guys for all the support. I loved these bikes since they came out.

Nice! I'm not big on ape hangers but If you like em....

[DGXSER]

I think he needs the apes!! His shoulders are above my head.

As to forward controls. Somewhere on here is a thread by TC (Topcat) where he made some forward controls from common hardware parts. Look and work pretty cool!! You might try looking that up and see what you think.

xs11lover, I wanted to thank you for helping me describe my sidecovers, I think it was you, I had on ebay. shoulda listed em here maybe helped someone out. I know better for next time. after shipping I got 30$ for tank and 36$ for covers.

[xs11lover]

If I helped that's great. That sucks about the price. They usually bring some cash. I don't think anyone has any money these days. I'm afaid to list my orange bike, and I'm ready to sell it.

Ape Hangers

What length are your ape hangers? I want to get my hands off my knees on this thing!

[gonzo]

12 inch

They are 12" mini apes picked up off ebay $42.00. This is my son, he is maybe 5'6" The only change was an 10" extension on the top brake line. Everything else I had just enough to instal without modifing.
