    It was on the site with XSJohn may he rest in peace.
    For some reason I recall that fellars name was Jayel.

    Are you one and the same?

    Rick
    yes indeed the 650 grew up a little, needed a road burner
    where are we going, and why are we in this hand basket?

      Hey GTXS,

      Has your dad ever driven a Harley? Has he ever driven YOUR XS11? Have you asked him why he wants a Harley aside from the bragging rights? Have you informed him about the lack of performance power of a stock Harley vs. an XS11? I was wondering what a batwing was when I saw this thread, never heard it called that! I, too, prefer the handlebar mounted fairings vs. the full Frame mounted fairings..lighter, less bulky! I don't want/need any storage space up front, just want to block the wind/rain. I have my saddlebags and trunk bag for storage.

      T.C.
      Mainly it just for the name, ive been trying to talk him into an 11 for years. He just found an old 900 sportster yesterday and im tryin to talk him out of it mainly cus i dont want to have to work on it for him. We are going to look at a few 11s this weekend hopefuly he will agree with me and get one.
