  • xs1100 repair manual

    Hi all. New to this forum and new owner of a 1981 $500.00 XS1100 venturer. It has been off the road and not started since 2012, and it has been outside in the Western N.Y. elements, Not a good environment for a bike
    She has the Pacifico bags and fairing with radio to boot. She is blue and white with the reflective gold striping.
    Is here any online or link to a repair and or troubleshooting manual for these?
    So far Fairing and bags are off. Horrible forward controls and foot boards are replaced with stock parts and stock bars are back on.
    Engine spins and sparks with a jump, and all lights ( still on the bike) are working.
    Gas tank and carbs are next on the sorting list. Fun stuff!

      That is sweet.Thanks so much. Believe it or not, I am stuck on getting the key to unlock the L side cover. It does not go in very far and I dont want to wreck it. Is was sadly neglected. At least now I am sure it goes clockwise!

          Thanks again. This site rocks, almost immediate good advice. Thinking about hitting the garage right now.
