"Classic XS Eleven 4/1978 & Classic Trailer 1987
1st Registered on 11/11/78 in Hermosa Beach California, I still have the 1st renewal papers from 1979
The XS Eleven made its debut in 1978 as the largest capacity Japanese superbike then currently in production. It featured dual front disc brakes a rear disc brake, shaft drive and cast wheels. A "factory custom"
I am only the second owner in 30 years, the guy I bought it off had it all that time, He bought it in Melbourne way back then from a bike shop, The story goes that the guy that owned it before went to the states bought the bike and toured around the States then bought it back to Aus.
The old girl is all original, Not sure but I don’t think you would find another one of these in Australia or if you did I doubt one in this in this condition, the tailer is nowhere as old
If not the only one in Australia there would not be many others like this one
She has all the goods Pump up shockers, radio cassette, driving lights even a cigarette lighter, Samsonite Top Box & Panniers, Original Owners Manual, and Supplementary Service Manual & Fairing Instillation Book
62,200 miles on the Speedo
I bought this bike to tour with my Ex, That is the why I am letting her go now because she is my Ex
We fell in love with it and I am sure whoever buys it will do the same, there’s just not bikes like this around anymore, as it is 35 years old and still has the original paint.
She has just been serviced & tuned
Will separate bike and trailer, but would rather sell them as a pair
I would like to see this bike go to a good home as she deserves to be looked after "
