Posted October 9, 20213 yr Morning all, I’ve just recently bought a 1978 XS1100, I’ve managed to get hold of Macho Maroon paint and am about to start a restoration of the bike, here is my question, is there anyone in or near the Kent area with a similar bike, as I would like to have a look at a couple of things that isn’t showing on the Haynes manual, anybody help?
October 9, 20213 yr Can't help you there as I'm about 500miles from Kent, but best of luck with the resto. I ran an xs11 from 89 until about 2002 and loved that beast Mind and open a new thread posting loads of pics please
October 9, 20213 yr Welcome. they raced them 1100"s ,see you tube, and if you google XS1100 / click on images , you"l see lots of variations,
December 3, 20222 yr I have had my 1979 XS1100F for over 40 years now. It is the same as your 1978 XS1100E except for cosmetics. I have rebuilt quite a few XS1100 engines I can probably answer any questions you have about these bikes so please do get in touch.
