If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.
If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Looks good as well, trevor. Nice clean example of the original 1100E, the bike some claim killed the CBX project. Cheaper, better, faster. Hehe.

I did not do any yet. That said I am firing off an email to the original owner to ask if he had put in a jet kit (he had put in a K&N filter) and I had a mechanic look at it and tune the carbs. There seems to be no "flat" spots and the plugs look good. This all said I am monitoring the situation closely.
What do you think Daniel?

I would suspect that the fuel screws might want to be out a wee bit more and the main jets could go up a size or two.
That should do it.
Still using the stock air-box at this point, right?
As for the title of this thread, I did put 130 miles on my new '81 1100EX today.
So far, it is getting 41.2 mpg. That will improve by next week.

I escaped from working on the '80 1100EX conversion long enough to play the riding game
and then HAD to cover some more miles as I was having too much fun!
About 50 miles today.

There fixed it for youWashed the bike then went out for 85 (55mi) km ride. It started to snow when I was washing my bike then stopped. Then I got caught in the snow on the way home. That was effing scary!! Needless to say it was cold. Best part is my bike is dirty again.
Ahh thanks Greg.There fixed it for you

I did 240 miles today in the Hill Country. I took some pics and tried to upload one of Enchanted Rock, but it kept failing.

Just work and back today with a quick jaunt to the Suzuki dealer to pick up my front disc pad shim finally... hopefully tomorrow I can ride without squeaky breaks! It was nice to ride in the sun for a change... and my bike's still filthy from yesterday...

Don't be sorry, nice pic!
Here is a pic from yesterdays ride in Indiana when it hit 65 degrees on the last day of February. 65 degrees in Feb, ridiculous! Today back to 38 degrees, bikes back in the garage. I found the last bit of snow that I could in a parking lot, hopefully a sign that spring is on the way.

Dang, that is one nice looking bike. Went for a ride today since it FINALLY made it to 10 Celsius (I'm so getting cabin fever for warmer riding weather).
Actually found a road that I had never been on before. Hard thing to find when you're on an Island.
