Yes! I've been bidding on 4 of them on eBay, all restoration jobs and every time, I got beaten by someone who doesn't seem to realise what they cost to restore. I also now have a new workshop devoted entirely to restoration, rather than bike storage/restoration. I've built a new garage for my car and made it big enough to put the XJR in too. This frees up what has so far been the bike store/workshop.
So... now... all I need is an XS to put in it and to get on with!XS1100F 1980 European model. Standard. Dyna coils. Iridium plugs. XS750 final drive (sometimes). Micron fork brace.

If you ever get the chance to buy one at reasonable cost, I would recommend it. It's amazingly fast and well built

BUY IT! The carbs and seat are worth that. CZI confess I sold mine too... Just one bike is enough. Then tonight I saw this...

Wow, Just the intact left side cover, plus the carbs, and Tank could double your money. If that is the intact stock exhaust on it in that good of shape, heck you just hit the jackpot!!!
Now of course, I would much prefer to see it brought back to a fine running beast!!Life is what happens while your planning everything else!

I'm somewhat jealous. I wish it was easier to get one here in the states....
