[Tomdane]

My name is Tom Jorgensen i live in Denmark, i have a 2006 XVS 1100 with only 7000 km on the tacho. I bought this bike last summer, its not my first Star, in the last 15 years i have had 2 x 650 Classic 1 x 650 Custom a Midnight Star 950 and a 1300. All great bikes, but the i think the 1100 are the best bike. Plenty of power and comfort and a classic cruiser look.
The my be the bike bike i am going keep for a long time, i cant find a better bike out there.
Hope to have a great time in here

Hello and welcome to the forum from western New York. This is a great place to learn, laugh, share and enjoy the occasional (ok, frequent) good natured jabs! Nice looking 1100! Happy trails!

Welcome to the group from Louisiana (on the coast of the Gulf of Mexico, east side of Texas)! I'm going to need some pics or videos from your rides, I would love to see some of Denmark! There is a great group of people here so do not hesitate to ask for help and please join us in our off topic discussions.

Welcome from Wisconsin i also have an 1100 classic. Mine is an 01 with 35000 miles on it. I absolutly love it. It is my favorite bike that i have owned in 40+ years of riding, One thing do not use the throttle to start it only the choke. Catistrophic starter clutch damage can result. Time to make it "your own". Would lov eto see some scenic pics also, maybe your bike infront of "Nessie"

There is an 1100 wiki that has an "all 1100 owners must read". I am surprised no one has posted it here.
