    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.

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