BOO Posted October 26, 2009 Share #2 Posted October 26, 2009 Pretty sure that is a trunk trim. At the time they also had lights that were fitted to that piece somehow. Nothing like some new chrome. BOO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheradan Posted October 26, 2009 Share #3 Posted October 26, 2009 It mounts to the rack your trunk sits on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M_Ross Posted October 26, 2009 Author Share #5 Posted October 26, 2009 I had the trunk off and tried to fit it. I havent seen any with this pointy rear end on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elag Posted October 26, 2009 Share #6 Posted October 26, 2009 Doen't fit around lower part of the trunk? My guess then is they sent you one for the wrong bike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yammer Dan Posted October 26, 2009 Share #7 Posted October 26, 2009 Take a look at the trunk.

GaryZ Posted October 29, 2009 Share #11 Posted October 29, 2009 That piece might be for the "non" Royale version trunk? It's smaller and I think it comes to a point at the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dingy Posted October 29, 2009 Share #12 Posted October 29, 2009 Here are a couple of pictures of an 83 Non Royale trunk. No point. Gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snaggletooth Posted January 5, 2010 Share #13 Posted January 5, 2010 Hey Mike, Did you ever figure out what that rear lightbar was for? I saw these pics of a XS1100 on eBay and it rang a bell on your post. Not quite the same but it's got that pointed back end on it. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=280444666638&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT Just noticed. BTW......love your Blonde. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snaggletooth Posted January 5, 2010 Share #15 Posted January 5, 2010 That they were Randy. Everbody that I knew that had one ended up busting them up. Fast bike for times. Not a lot of guys were used to the weight and that like of power back then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
