finally, a first ride this season. it was 80 degs in Chicago today, so i installed a new rear tire, my newly painted black/icy gold flake gas tank, checked for leaks, installed a battery, checked the oil level, pulled the choke and ................wow!!! my Mutt started on the 1st click of the starter and sounds extremely awesome! i can justly say i got the carbs right. its a great feeling to be rewarded for the perseverance and dedication i put into this bike with the assistance of all on this forum. thanx to all for ur experience and willingness to share it!
another XS11 brought back to life. i was so eager to take her out, i took off without the airbox. the intake sounded soooo good when grabbing a handfull, almost like an old Kaw KZ1000 and she ran great. what music to the ears with the Kerker and no airbox. anyway, i oiled the new UniFilter foam, installed it and took off again. it ran like new ( i could only imagine what that would be like) great throttle response in all positions. this bike is so comfortable, i never want to bring her home. im going to take some pix and post them soon. thanx to all!!!!
