XS1100 0 Posted January 12, 2011 It was mint I sold it ages ago for not much I think it cost me more to have the wheels laced up,looking back in time there are quite a few things I should of kept but at the time you have to move on.As for the days of peg scrapping well I suppose I parted for far to long wile my mates where all getting married having kids and then getting divorced, I was jet setting around the world on the proceads of buying doing up and selling both cars and bikes.Then I met Anne in the aviator riding a Harris Honda 400F which was faster than the one I had at the time! and 20 yrs later 2 teenage kids and I need a new passport itchy feet need to get the hell out of here and go for mooch round the Californina desert.cus I am weird.........And theres sod all there but Snakes sun and sand nice.
