357Bob - it isn't difficult to switch rides from the T100 to the W650, but I gotta watch myself when I'm wrenching. When Grebmrof and I were working on my bike, getting it ready for the ride out West, I found myself using the torque tables from the Kaw manual on the Triumph. I have to learn to keep this stuff separate.
Daz - Yeah - I don't need more than one bike to cause a mess myself. I can screw up a one car funeral with the best of them. I'm just don't 'fess up to it very often!
Sweat - I'll get a pix of my buddy's XS650 - You'll be disappointed .... it is totally stock, as far as I can tell. I believe it is an '83, with sort of a King/Queen seat and mag wheels. It is a neat bike. His only complaint is the vibes .... I tell him that he should have owned my 1963 BSA. That thing shook the garage!
Apparently the weakest part of the XS bikes is the alternator. When Mark's failed, the web business that supplied the rebuilt unit asked him to make sure to send in the core, so it could be rebuilt.

Edit - Sweat - I answered too fast. You must have been asking Bob 357 about the XS. I just saw where you asked about the "hardtail". Got two Bobs here.
