I am thinking of buying another XJ11. The problem is that it has no title. It runs and I thought about parting it out but want to see how many would be interested in parts for an XJ11 sense most on this site have XS11. It is a complete bike.

If the exhaust system's stock, and still in good, non-welded up shape... I would be interested in that.
Collector & muffler connection areas keep failing on the ones I've come up with...

Yep, that is the blessing and the curse of the XJ, a one year only model. Which means it is unique and "rare", which means the parts are rare and typically more money. It also means a narrower market to sell parts to.

I might be interested in brake components (calipers, especially) from an XJ. The fronts are the same as the LH uses.1980 XS850SG - Sold

And if the rear shocks are good, there may be someone here that wants to switch their XS to the XJ air shocks. I can say it really makes it ride and handle better than the stock shocks do. And better, they can be reconditioned and so be good for another 28 years.Cy
