    New Mufflers, patience and luck.

    What do you think of these? I haven't even gotten out the chrome polish yet!

    Found them on Craigslist, $150 shipped from MI to NY. Guy had them listed as off an XS1100 but when I saw the part # in one of the photos I knew they were for an XJ. He said they came off a bike that the owner put an aftermarket exhaust on and they were hardly used, had been laying around on a shelf for years. Just goes to show that there are still nice parts out there that appear from time to time, I guess it was my turn to get lucky.

        Nice score Billy, your right in that there are still NOS parts hidden away that surface if your lookin' at the right time, that's how I ended up with two sets of Skettis
        1980 XS1100G "Dolly G" Full Dresser (with a coat of many colors )
        1979 XS1100SF (stock-euro mods planned)
        1984 XV700L Virago (to be hot-modded)
        1983 XJ750MK Midnight Maxim (semi-restored DD)
        1977 XS650D ( patiently awaiting resto)

        Sometimes it takes a whole tank of gas before you can think straight.
