Thank you daywalker for posting the pics :worthy: i had all intentions of this being my keeper but riddled with arthritis and unable to ride and lack of work forces me to sell :headbang:

Hmmmmmm!

The black engine finish denotes the bike as having been made prior to the introduction of alloy finished X1 engines for 2001 ( the only prior alloy finished engine on an X1 being the limited edition Millennium made for 2000 ) until the end of the production run a couple of years later.

:yt: and then the very last parts bin 2002 ones went half and half ...earlier X1's than that had black engines but chrome pushrod tubes ;)
So definitely looks right colour for a 2001 to me as it's exactly the same colour as muffins engine ;)

Hmmmmmmm! again.

I would have put £100-00 on all post 2000 X1s having an alloy finished engine but it seems that I stand corrected. :?
