    I am not going to do a shirt, so if you want to do one, feel free.

        I just scheduled a few extra days at home, so count me in. I'll probably do it from the house this year. If Rob Reil doesn't get my carb back to me shortly, I'll have to be XSive on a XS650!

        I'm having the broken float post welded properly. I'm hoping to post a good report on that operation.

          I think I only need a set of coils to get the XS going.

          I've got several sets of used coils available for the price of a cup of coffee.
          Are you seriously thinking of going?
          Would two XS1100 Special ownerships get me past the gate guards if I take the Connie?

            BDF,

            You may ride a Harley if that's what blows your skirt up. Just come!

              Hi BDF,
              Gary leads on an Aprillia and Brent sometimes brings his XS so Yes you can come on the Connie From your new address you could be the furthest travelled But with Xsesives all over who knows.

              The riding is fantastic and you already know the "usual suspects" are fun to be with
              I will call about the coils.

                Hi Marty,
                That adds to the incentive to get my act together and get down there. Renewd effort to get the xs going or I might have to come on the XJ650

                    IF I find me a bike (xs11 special) by this event the wife and I'll be there. Haven't been to Suches since '07 when my brother road his bike into the side of the mountain. He was OK but that kind of put the damper on bikes for a while.
                    Looking for a nice Special or XJ.

                      Hi Yamahansolo,
                      The 3 ohm style.I think the XJ likely uses the same coil as the 81H. I have a couple of leads here in Canada so if they don't work out I will get back to you.
                      Thanks

                        No problem. With tc not coming we have a tall void to fill... those coils are just sitting there... about 15, 000 miles on them. Just a few weeks!!!

                          Hey, this isn't too far from home! As long as I don't manage to do something really stupid like detonate the XS1100, I'll put this rally on the calendar!

                              Chris,

                              Thanx and hold the thought. I'm out of the country until the 13th. I sent mine to MOTORCYCLECARBS.COM to have the post welded.
