    XS 1100 Special

    Good news!

    I may have the XS fixed and ready to go by ride time. I think all I need now is a tune-up. I will probably have to have the timing set and the carbs re-synced, but it's getting there.

    If this doesn't work, my next step will be to perform an exorcism on it!

    She will cruise again!!!!!!!

    Just to be sure, on ride day, I think I'll bless it with Holy Water and maybe annoint it.

    Semper Fi!

      Hey Gig,

      Congrats and looking forward to meeting you, and seeing everybody else.

      Hey MartyA, do we have reservations for "our" group,(Ralph, you and Sally, and ME) at TWO's lodge since the dates were changed and moved earlier than usual??

      I'll be making my trip south to see mom in Ala., and will then come back up on Friday for the weekend's riding!

      I had hoped to be able to have Godzilla repainted by then, but its' going slower than expected, and I don't want to rush this project, so it'll still be in it's RAT configuration, but as you and others know, it still runs well even though it's semi-ugly!

        ...do we have reservations for "our" group,(Ralph, you and Sally, and ME)...
        Good question. I think so. Hey Ralph M. do we have reservations for that weekend? Sally is not coming this year, just me and the FZ. And I can leave Thursday morning, so if anyone is coming early I could use a corner of your room Thursday night.

          Hi Guys,

          Yes I do have the room. Do not know if Bob is going yet but if he does, that would be only four in the room and we have done that before.

                    Hey guys,
                    As much as I regret it I won't be there this year
                    We have a college visit planned for the daughter as she is a senior this year.
                    Have a ball to all and I will be thinking about you guys while I am stuck driving in the cage!!

                      I don't know Gary. Did a trip last month to N.Carolina but I'm gonna see what time off I can work out at work for TWO. If not this year, I'll be planning on it for next....

                        It's looking more and more likely I'll make it down. Maybe 7 out of 10 right now.

                        Anybody got a good route to Suches from RT81? Seems as though it took forever to get there the way I went last year.

                          Russ,

                          So you're planning on going to Suches. I'm thinking about it. If I go I'll probably take off Friday and head out Thursday evening. It's along ride from Norva in one day.
