Well maybe a $50 standard 
Anyway got one of the bikes going that i got from karla, as it turns out this bike use to belong to a rideing buddy of Bob Jones, Charlie hass, i talked to him via email and he said it was one of the bikes he traded to Bob for a rebuilt one, it dont look to good right now, alot of parts were missing, tank, headers, side covers, head light, but it is comeing together, I should take a pic of it, seat is torn, paint on the tank I used is bad, took a set of headers that were rusted and painted them, just wanted to get it up and running and see if the gears were ok before I went any futher with it.
i am going to try and put this one back stock as best I can.
I had forgot how good these bikes handeled, the last xs1100 i had was about 25 years ago, the one i was working on last year is still in the shead and it looks like I will get it runing in a couple of weeks.
Haveing fun in retirement
