Roseville, Michigan

I am selling this as part of my late brothers estate, my brother LOVED this XS11. He was a master auto mechanic and tooling machine repair man. The condition above is accurate and as much as I hate to sell this, my sister-in-law could use the funds and that trumps anything. My 67yo brother had this bike forever so I am not totally sure of its history. I think that he bought it from his friend who bought it new. The numbers match. Basically the bike was ridden regularly until he became ill and then sat for 3 years on a lift in his garage. I simply rolled it off the lift, washed off the dust and took the pictures to post. On a whim I quick charged the battery, tried to start it and like a good XS11, it started within 10 seconds with 3 year old gas in it !! The engine sounded great and no smoke. I think my brother did put gas stabilizer in it for winter storage which may have helped. Like I said, the carbs were leaking some but I am familiar enough with XS carbs to not freak out at that, those vacuum feed carbs are sensitive to sitting around. I took a video of it running but not sure if ebay will let me post a video. Overall the bike needs a couple weeks on a lift and some good elbow grease to be returned to a great 1st year specimen. The carbs might just "self correct" if some good gas and solvent are ran through. I simply have too many bike projects to do it myself and like I said, the Sis can use the $$. Shipping is on buyers dime and we can help get it loaded of course. We will answer any questions you may have. The BIN price is good deal for someone. I will answer questions as best I can if you have any. FYI , I will be listing a 1975 Suzuki RE5 and 1970 Triumph Trophy soon as well (complete "barn finds").......if you are interested just keep an eye out.

I want to be as transparent of this bikes condition as I can. Here is the good; A lot of the wear and tear components on the bike have recently been replaced, or rebuilt (all done since July of 2016). The Mikuni carb has all new floats, needle and seats, and jets. It starts cold on the first crank of the starter and idles smooth. New fork seals, new Continental "Conti Go" tires, 100 miles on the tires. New bearings in the front and rear wheels The gas tank is clean, I have small fuel filters in front of the carbs for saftey. I installed some cone air filters which made the bike happier in the mid range. I do have he original airbox that will go with he bike (it may be a reproduction). The bad; This XS 1100 is obviously not in complete restored condition. The headlight, handlebar, and turn signals are nor original to the bike. I have had the bike for less than a year, I rode it a good bit over the summer (about 1500 miles) with plans to do a lot of rehab work to it over the winter. I ran into an electrical issue that is above my ability to rectify. The bike starts immediately, doesn't smoke, and rides great. Loads of power, and great acceleration. However, It seems to only get power from the battery. I do not have great skill in sourcing electrical issues. The stator is perfectly clean on the inside, I do not have a meter to check for current. A small patched tear on the front of the seat. A small ding on both sides of the tank from a previous owner flipping the bars over into a cafe look. The wires from the turn signals were pulled from the switch when they did that. Someone did an odd touch up to the right side cover. Their is a small crack on the bottom of that cover that has been epoxied. All this will show in the photos. I have a video from this morning, doing a cold start. I can share this with any interested parties. This bike is repairable, or it is worth a good bit more parted out. I am hoping to sell it complete to someone who will respect it and save it. If I cannot find a reasonable offer. I will sell it as parts.

I'm about to part out this 1978 Yamaha XS1100 and first wanted to see if a possible buyer is available in my area who may wanted to purchase it for the repairs that are needed. It been a project of mine for the last few years. The motor is sound condition and starts but it still needs carb work, I have the new Intake Manifold Boots which I purchased here on eBay this spring (still in the box and never opened). Also recently install (new) was Barnett Kevlar Friction Clutch Plates (8) and springs. The exhaust pipes and headers were also install this year/used also purchased on eBay they came off a 1980 XS1100 special. Both front and back tires are new and never driven on "Dunlop's" The rear shocks are new. That's about all the new stuff (The oil is new -- mobile @ $8 per qtr.) I'm asking what I purchased it for plus the cost in of the new parts; asking $1200 OBO. Thank your for your time.
