Thanks Doc.

I have my eye on another bike right now, and the XL is an '81 with twin shocks and a 6 volt system. From everything I've read online, the 6 volt headlight has all the lumen quality of a candle, and I'm not going to spend the time / money to convert it. If I was to ride an old XL on the street, I would prefer an '82 or later.

Haven't thought of a name. Perhaps Polished Turd?
