Sadly, I had to put my XS11's in the shed down the hill for winter. We had snow this morning and momma wants her half of the garage for her car. :-( I do have the Honda ST1300 ready to ride in the garage however. It is depressing as I have tuned the 2 XS11's and they were running fine.Originally posted by txtriathlete View PostWould have to have wheels on it for me to ride it. Right now its on jackstands.

Yeah, I should do that. Pretty easy on the carbs from the 81H and the viton tipped fuel valve should keep the gas from flowing.Originally posted by motoman View PostHope you were at least able to drain the carb fuel on those two XS11's Sid.Skids (Sid Hansen)

On the Road - sort of
First time "down the road" with the old girl since 2013 at least. Pretty much an end to end renovation. Still have a few odds and ends to sort out.80 SGComment
