    1/4 Mile times of XJ 1100

    What was the 1/4 mile time of the yamaha xj 1100? I know that the XS was 11 seconds but am not sure about the xj. Is it 11 or more? I have some friends that asked and I am dont want to look like an idiot.

          The published 1/4 mile times were with PeeWee Gleason at the controls. He was 130 pounds soaking wet and absolutly fearless. With an average rider on board the 1/4 mile ET would be at least 2 more seconds.
