Just bought this bike...

Hey guys, I just bought a 1979 XS1100. It needs work. I´m worried that the inner right side spark plug hole may be stripped. It coughs alot at idle and burns oil like no tomorrow. Piston rings? Valve adjustment? Help please.. I need this bike as a daily runner... Where could I find a replacement cylinder block? Any references for parts suppliers?

Thanks for your help guys.

Dev
