Manufacture Date

Strom, what is the serial number on your bike? Possibly an educated guess could be made from that and refer to other peoples serial number/manufactured date.

The mongrel's frame is a 2h7-024978 6/78

the guy rebuilt the 79 special on this frame.. after crashing it from what ive found. (eng # 3h3-014788)


no wonder im having a hard time getting side covers to fit this thing...

on and ol' rusty is 10/78 3h3-003465 eng and frame.

Any input as to these ?????

your 3h3 xs1100,is an sf model fromm 1979,it was done in carmine red ,black gold.it was done for the us market only,they did a xs110sf model for canada and the rest but the frame no was 3h4,do not know what the difference was between the two.hope this info has been of use .robbie.

[Jdwags]

Thanks,

what im hoping to find is what that frame on the Mongrel is,

I'd love to put a left side cover on it again.

the ones they guy wrecked and then taped back together, oh and used a sheetrock screw into the lock to hold down.. just dont look right.

to find out more on your bike rather than me tell you ,go to www.biker.net ther is a section on the xs 1100s for the usa and canada and the rest,just had a quick look on it and it is a 1100e.you will find that parts of the 2h9(which is what i have got) will fit the 2h7, there is side panel on ebay for the 1100e but i am not sure witch side it is on .

[scoobes]

just been on ebay,it is a right hand side panel the item no is 2440292233,its worth a look and very cheap.

78 XS serial number

I just bought an old 78 XS11 E model and the serial number on it is 2H7000670. The build date is 9/77 It was complete and running when I bought it, but has now become an organ donor. Anybody need any 'organs'?

Side cover

Wags, I have a set of side covers for a 78 standard. The only problem is the locking tab is broken off the left one. Let me know if you are interested
