Our XJ's went from 1982 to 1984 , while the states version was only available till 1982 so it is not that surprising. Many thanks for the feedback.

Were the XS11's available to you fellows in 1982? 1981 was the last year we could get them in Canada, so I am just wondering a bit.

yeah they were ras, I think from memory they

Comes with a few issues. Still has $2,900 start price though - CLICK







"This has been a fantastic bike for many years, I am the third owner and have the original receipt. Will sell as is with no roadworthy or rego. Has got a couple off issues with second gear but starts fine and runs very well. Engine rebuild 3000km ago. Selling due to new bike and can't afford to keep it."

Now here's his pitch from his bikesales ad where he's asking $3,600 for it (This is where I got the year?? from) - CLICK

"This is a great bike and had been very reliable for many years for me. I am the third owner and have the original receipt from new. Very well looked after. Comes as is with no roadworthy or rego. Selling due to upgrade and have purchased a new bike. Still original paint and has had a rebuilt engine about 3000km ago.

Also looks to have some pretty major engine oil leaks + blown rears shock/s for a start. Dark pics don't help.
