INTRODUCING
THE XS ELEVEN SSR/2
BOB JONES SIGNATURE REPLICA
The
ultimate XS Eleven is finally here. After more than two
decades of R&D and many previous custom XS Elevens
created by Bob. The perfect Colors, graphics, cosmetic
and body parts, suspension and handling pieces, engine
and transmission parts all came together in this unbelievable
XS Eleven. Style inspired and named after his new 2006
Chevy SSR. |
THE XS Eleven SSR/2 COMES IN
TYPE I and TYPE IIPaint scheme and graphics
are the same on both versions. The only difference
is cylinder head intake porting and individual K&N
air cleaners on TYPE II and exhaust porting only with
the stock airbox on TYPE I. Oh yeah, theres $2000.00
difference in price too. However, you cant
ride TYPE II in a rain storm or it would suck water into the carburetors,
so its a fair weather kind of bike that can beat about anything
in a stop light drag race. Yes, even a big sport bike. Remember they
are geared for extremely high top end speed and have to give up some
low end to get that. The XS Elevens top speed is somewhat governed
by its final drive gear ratio to about 150 mph. However, going from
97 bhp on the 1978 standard stock to around 150 bhp on the SSR/2 and
raising the compression ratio from 9:1 to 10.25:1, not to speak of
taking 6 pounds of unsprung weight off of the wheels via EBC brake
rotors and then a lighter exhaust, front fender etc. should put you
somewhere in the 9s
in a quarter mile with the right person in the driver seat. In an 8th
mile, well you dont wanna know. Like I said in a stop light contest
there wont be any contest when you disappear before everyones
eyes. Maybe I should have called it the invisible bike. Now you see
it now you dont, walla.
The seat alone is a work of art. Not only the two tone styling to match
the awesome paint and graphics. It has a lowered driver area with a
back stop to keep you from sliding to the rear under the bikes massive
acceleration. The torque is better than a big twin and the power band
is never ending from idle to red line. Its like having a V8 in
a motorcycle without the weight.

Equipped
with a Wiseco 1196cc kit, a ported head, Dynojet kitted
carburetors and a Bob Jones modified transmission the ride
is indescribable. With heavy duty larger wire front fork
springs and and the best aluminum body 418 progressive
shocks available with chrome load adjustable springs and
dampening adjuster to boot. Then backed up with a high
polished fork brace. Handling is a dream to enhance the
29.5 degree rake angle of the XS Eleven Standard, which
in my opinion is superior to most anything out there to
start with.
Brakes are equipped with steel braided lines and EBC floater
rotors that self center like a sport bike. The heavier
chrome plated steel fender is replaced with a plastic super
bike type with painted graphics and trimmed with chrome
edging. Giving the front end a distinctive different look.
The café fairing and engine scoop all painted to match tank,
side covers and the seat tail cowling. Mirrors are mounter on the fairing
like a sport bike. The end result of all of that you can see in the photos
here.

The
bike you see here is the end result of everything I have
been able to accomplish with the XS Eleven. It will not
only perform like a sport bike, accelerate like a drag
bike and carry more than a Gold Wing. It will last 50 years,
needs little service and is easy to work on. Find me a
$40-80,000.00 chopper that can do that or for that matter
any new bike. I dont think so. But if you can, like
Lee Iaccoca used to say when he was with Chrysler. Buy
it!
However, for $23,000 you can get a SSR/2 TYPE I XS ELEVEN
or for $25,000 you can get a TYPE II. It takes a minimum
of 90 days to build one. We need 50% down when we start
on your bike and the remainder on delivery. We build
them numerically from the order dates. It takes a $2000
non refundable deposit to get on the list before we can
start on it. When we start on your unit we will call
you for the additional $9,500.00 on a TYPE I or $10,500.00
on a TYPE II, whichever the case may be. The remainder
when its
finished. These prices are FOB and freight or shipping
would be additional depending on where you live or want
it to be sent. Several people have come here to the Kansas
City area and picked up bikes we have built for them
and rode or trailered them home. This is the only way
we can build this bike and offer it at the present pricing,
as each unit must be done by hand unless we stop all
other business to increase production capabilities. This
of course would cause them to be far more expensive.
Prices will stay the same as long as costs do not go
up or supply and demand is possible. This is an exceptional
motorcycle and an opportunity to own one reasonably by
most anyone. If you have always wanted one of these bikes.
This is the chance to get one in its most advanced form
ever. It may never come again.
Think
about it.
