    WELCOME! I'd say yes but I guess it would depend on what "is it worth restoring" means to you...

    Restore the 550 and send the XJR1300 to my house and I will dispose of it for you. :wink:

    I will even throw in my XJ1100J in the bargain. 8O

    Where do you want to meet? :?:

    Definately - but appreciate the age of the bike. That said, most parts seem to be available. Check out BigFitz's gallery, they BOTH look like new.
