Man there ain't nothing like a good looking, good running XS. Yeah! 30 or 40 hardlys there and guess what everyone was looking at! Haven't cranked her in about 4 months but she busted right off. Took her for a short run (about 40 miles) and everything was fantastic. HELLO summer I'm ready!'81 1100 MNS - "Midnight XSpress"

Thanks Joe,
Since those pics I have redone the valve shims, modified the swing arm (I am running a 140 rear tire), installed a auto CCT, and installed a trubo shield. Will try to get pics and post today.'81 1100 MNS - "Midnight XSpress"

New Pics
After a hard days ride. Sorry, but there wasn't enough day left to clean her up.
Put my vest on it so you could see the new owners patch. Thanks TC! As you can see --no rub on the RWL due to the swing arm mod!
I have another swing arm that I will do a pictorial and write up on the mod in the next week.
The tank is not dirty. Just the sparkle paint really glistens in the sunlight.
