If Dwayne strikes out I know I have a bunch I'd got for my LH restoration. They may need a little work to bring them up to your standard.

Were you talking about the Haliburton area? It is pretty country there. XS North rallied there in 2012. Rained on the Saturday and I had dunlop 404's on my SF. It was like skating on ice. Took...

I've been following the FB xs11 somewhat and have become aware that a lot of them have turned to FB because they can't register here. Is someone working on this issue? They are being deprived of the...

We
all learned this way. One other thing for you I would suggest is to buy a copy of the "Haynes" xs11 manual. Clymers has better pictures; but, the Haynes explains the function of each system very...

Beg borrow or buy yourself a big box fan like the ones you saw in my shop and set them in front of your exhausts. These are air cooled motors so when ever your running your bike, make sure you have...

Tuning.
Pablo, bring it back here and I'll put it back the way it was when it left here. STOP tinkering! Make a list of all the things you've done to it so I know what else to look at.

If I remember
when I was timing the cams to the crank and recording all the shim sizes and clearances, I noted that he still had 1.5 coils in it. I tested them and they were good so I'm pretty sure he had a BR in...

His father in law was the PO. I don't know who did the motor swap or harness hacking or why. He brought the bike to me originally to graft in one of TC's fuse panels. Once I started taking it apart,...

Harness
His harness was hacked up pretty good when I first saw his bike. The headlight had been hotwired to the battery. When I put in his fuse panel I cut all jury rigging out and restored the harness by...

Fork uppers
You may want to check your fork uppers. The config of the triple tree keeps everything in line. Hard to go out of wack unless the forks are bent. It doesn't take much deviation at the top to affect...

It's just crazy right now. Old people look but don't see you or don't care and pull out in front of you anyway. Old people are the worst but they aren't the only ones. Everyone is in a hurry. I have...
