Had a look. Didn't like what I saw.Shouldn't deserve to have "XS11" in its title as it'll come up if somebody interested in these great bikes does a google search. Just a bitching arena. Won't go back again.

i havent visited there for a while . . . Issues such as fuel economy
and how to convert my XS into a Gold Wing lost me. . The "old
blighty" site i can relate  to and the mechanical know how of the UK
guys has more depth . . .
i have not ventured onto the euro sites in any meaningful way as yet

I think looking back on it what happened was at some stage the forum swapped over to XS11PLUS so that is were things went down hill for me, got to busy to look around so gave it all a miss. All their stuff was about US politics.
Guess it's my fault for not going back to the source, SILLY me just looking at the email postings

Their bike stuff is ok but over the years both myself and the German mob have noticed a communication gap.
Some suggestions sent through were not even responded to etc so a few years ago I sort of gave up.
Some great blokes there TKAT etc
AND you fellas of course  :-* :-*

Maybe we just had nothing to tell them of interest.

that "hot topics" thread was previously on the US.com site - now moved off to .org - apparently
don't write off the us.com
there are some good things there - I met steptoe there as  recall....
and the Calendar - featuring my bike in July came from there....um er.....

 XS11.ORG, but be warned, don't go there and expect someone to save you if your opinion is not agreed with. Apart from that, it seems to be a good site.
