Description
The XS Eleven was the first four-cylinder four-stroke motorcycle from Yamaha. It exploited well-proven technology, irst used by Yamaha in their previously releasedXS 750four-stroke triple. When the XS Eleven was introduced, t earned a reputation as a heavy, owerful bike. At the time of its release it was the most powerful production motorcycle money could buy. "Nobody gets far riding the XS11 before they become acquainted with the fact that it's strong; we had ridden ours over hundreds of open-road miles before going to the drag strip and knew it was a bullet."[4]Cycle Magazine had this to say of the Eleven: "...the XS is a Rolls Royce with a blown Chrysler Hemi motor..."
I'm only selling because I'm moving to an area where the riding season is way too short. I hate to part with this classic.
