    Having both fork caps is almost as rare as the reset knob.
    As you know the Supertrapp is a big bonus as well.
    Looks like CBR plug wires. Was the seller from the 1100F site?
    The SuperTrapp is awesome, my favorite exhaust by far and I believe I have finally obtained one that will work well on my 1100E.

    I didn't even notice the fork caps.

    I don't believe the owner was a member of 1100F.NET.

      Don't mind Rob, Harley's make you grouchy. It's the nature of the beast. He probably doesn't wave to other riders now.

      We had a blue one for sale here not too long ago that the owner was asking $5,500 for it.

        Must have been a very nice one, did it sell?

            Thanks, I will have to get back to you with the disc count, but from the looks of it, I am going to guess 10 - 12.

              Thanks, I have a super trapp that came with my 1100L and it didn't come with any - just open ended. I bought a package of 12 discs and the alum cap. Sounds to me like it's a bit restricted yet, so that's why I asked...

                My cousin had one when they came out. They were either red or blue, right? His was red. He went through bikes like crazy back in the day. I know he had a 78 or 79 GS 1000 before the 1100F. A possum took out the Honda one night on the way home.

                  more disc the more flow...super traps just sound muffled from the disc design and baffle.
                  i have to agree the stainless ST on a UJM is the pipe to have.

                    It's not there anymore, so I guess so. Asking prices down here seem very high to me, but then I always post at least $500 over what I'd like to get. Negotiating room always make the buyer feel they got the better of me. I'm ok with that.

                      Gorgeous ! Back in 83 I was riding my EZ home to my brothers wedding (NC to MN) and crossed paths with a guy ridding one. We rode 200 miles @ 100mph side by side on the freeway in TN. Epic. Remember it like it was yesterday.

                          Have a Supertrapp on my 85 750EF with 15 discs on it,that looks to me like it has a few more.The SS version may make it look different from my aluminium can though.Looking at the stack on mine I'd guess at least 16 and probably closer to 20.Always liked the CB750/900/1100 bikes.

                            Thanks. I will need to read up on the discs. I have an NOS pipe for my 1100E that I think came 8-10 discs.

                              They look so good because they are close in appearance to the 1100EZ.

                                An 1100F was the first inline four that I ever rode to 135mph. Love those things. Very envious.
