        As a sidelight to this thread...how many of you guys have gotten a glimpse of an XS11 in traffic, made a real effort to catch up with it, only to find it was a Honda or Kawi 4 of the same era?

            Gabe's XS (Down$hift) is the only running XS I have ever seen on the road. I may/may-not have seen an XS on the opposite side of the highway (square headlight with fairing), but it could have been anything.

                Come to a rally! You might see a bunch of them. We had more than 20 XS11's at XS Southeast 2013!

                    Yeah not shy about his opinion, don't matter, I like both my XS1100 and my XLH1100 different rides but the same fun, just depends what you're trying to do I guess and spend most of my yearly miles on a SR500
                    where are we going, and why are we in this hand basket?
