Yamaha XS description

Nice Classic 35 year old (no longer requires annual inspection) 1978 Yamaha XS1100 Cafe racer styling. First year for the 1100cc 4cyl Japanese bikes and VERY FAST for classic muscle bike. They werent quite as popular for racing due to the shaft drive as the Kawasaki KZ and Suzuki GS with chain drive but a nice fun old bike. This bike runs well. Recently serviced and ready to RIDE. New Tires, New Clutch. Nice cool old bike if you want to ride something like no one else has. CLEAR NC title.

I have spent a lot of time and money fixing and working out the bugs on this bike and it runs and rides very well. 

NO SHIPPING.  LOCAL CASH ONLY PICKUP ONLY.  consider this if your outside North Carolina BEFORE bidding.  REASONABLE RESERVE

Relisting due to non paying bidder.  This is a fun cool old bike that someone will enjoy.  But please don't bid unless you are willing to come get it cash in hand.  Very flexible on pickup schedule.

Mon, 24 Feb 2014

Yamaha has started a recall campaign on 2009-2013 YZF-R1 sportbikes and 2012-2013 Super Ténéré models because of a risk of headlight failure due to overheating. The recall campaign affects 19,045 units of the R1 and 4,683 units of the Super Ténéré in the U.S. According to documents released by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, heat generated by the headlight bulb socket may cause the terminal ends to expand, resulting in arcing between the terminal connector and bulb contact.

Let's just hope Lorenzo doesn't launch himself this weekend.
