    Newbie in Exeter Devon

    Just bought an xl600 for a trip with a mate to Turkey in 2010
    Its this one here http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&it em=130293529761
    It states its been stood for 12 years but may have been less as the chap got 20+ bikes from a barn in Italy and has no idea how long each bike had been in there.
    Anyway it looks to have been stored well, not collecting it until Tuesday then i will be pestering all you XL guru's with dumb questions 1st thing is to get it running and check all electrics etc then i will strip it for a complete rebuild
    Anyway if anyone could tell me which model it is and where i can get a workshop manual and parts list that would be a good start.
    Thanks to Mervin for sending the Link for this Forum looks to be full of good stuff
