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.

Giacomo Agostini won the crown from Yamaha in 1975, followed by Suzuki-mounted Barry Sheene in '76 and '77. The footage is bloody good, considering the camera technology of the day.
