Hey gang,  Sorry for the long Hiatus.  Its been a weird year.   Kid graduated, I got divorced, met a new lady, Moved her in, covid hit, moved my mother on to the property due to health issues, built her a granny cottage.  Haven't had a hell of a lot of free time.  But I have never been more content and I finally feel like i am getting my feet under me.

 SO... last night i finally got the 81 xs1100 ripping!  wohoooooooo!  Wow she is quick!  and sounds mean!  Now on to cosmetics, does anyone have a seat sitting around?  I am preferably looking for the king/queen type.  the one I have is pretty rotten and seat pan is on its last legs otherwise I would try and re upholster it.  Once bike is restored I am starting the sidecar :) 


Oh and the new missus loves bikes !!!!!!! Just got her a mint, garage kept 1982 hondamatic 400 with 1800km on her....for a lawnmower luck turned around this year:)

Anyways, thanks in advance.  Stay safe out there.  Hope everyone is doing well

Good to hear from you. 

The old rotten seat from my XS1100 was the first thing I through in the bin.

I gave some parts to a non Club member who was restoring an XS1100.   If I can find his number, I'll see if he has an extra seat.

Peace & Grease, Dennis
