I’ve recently bought a project bike and I can’t pinpoint the exact model. I think it’s ax XS D based on the wiring harness and clocks etc.
The forks however are 34mm with a single disc and early style caliper, but I think it should have 2. The caliper is mounted behind the left fork leg. Not the same as an XS D that I previously had..
The chassis number is 447 - 09121, although that is off the V5 so I think it should be 009121. According to V5 engine number matches. I did check it on the bikes while ago.
I’m wondering if it has been made up of various XS parts over the years.
The bike was imported some years ago and is registered as a 1977, but I think earlier or on the cusp of C and D model.
