New Members Welcome Area

I am looking to buy a nearly new xj6 Diversion and have seen two that take my fancy. One was manufactured in 2009, registeted in 2011 and has done 2,250 miles; the other was made in 2010, registered the same year but done 7,500 miles. I know the model was updated in 2010 but I don't know by what. I would be grateful for any opinions from members. Thanks Matt

Hi all, Been lurking here for a couple of days, figure I should introduce myself :-) I am Johnny from N.Ireland. Passed my A2 test last month and have treated myself to a shiny new XJ6 Diversion, which I collected on Thursday. Hoping to do a tour of UK or Ireland during the Summer so any suggestions are very welcome! Best, Johnny

I'm hoping to find Black & White speedblock to fit a diversion - can anyone help?

Hello I've just got my first bike an xj600 1991 and I need to know is it a division or pre division Yamaha couldn't tell me except it came from France and is know as a 4br1? It has some fairings but nothing covering exhaust down pipes thanks URL=http://s1383.photobucket.com/user/David_Thomas_Heward/media/Mobile%20Uploads/image_zpsee17dc03.jpg.html]

Just thought I would say hi, I have just been given a j reg xj600. It's been sat in a garage for 16 years, and hasn't been started for over six. It's all there, and in pretty good condition apart from the tank which looks like something has been dropped on it from a great height. Plan on seeing if I can fire it up tomorrow, so I might be back with some questions soon. Cheers, Colin

Hi, New member from Newtownards, Northern Ireland.

Hi, I have to replace the bearings but the machine is a Jap import and I'm having difficulty confirming which parts to order - any help much appreciated. Thanks, Colin.

I am thinking of changing the exhaust to a 4 into 1 for my 1997 XJ 900 Diversion. Has anyone done this and if so, was there any improvement in performance? Hard to improve perfection I know! Thanks, Ben

Hello Fellow Bikers. Can anybody tell me if there is any differance in the running gear/electrics etc between a 1990 xj900f & a 1994 xj900f.The reason behind my Question is that iv'e just bought a 1990 xj900 bobber project but the engine is scrap very low compression on 3 cylinders.Not the end of the world as the frame has been superbly chopped & there are some great machined parts.So my idea is to buy a 93/94 pre-diversion & use all the good bits.but not sure if the parts are interchangeable.Any info would be fantastic.Also if anyone out there has a complete (must be tidy & mint running) xj900 for sale please let me know.Regards Mark.

Hi, I bought a well cared for 1991 XJ900F a couple of months ago and I was very pleased with it but found the clutch very heavy and tiring to use, the cable looked original and felt stiff so I decided to replace it as a matter of course; the start of my problems! Finding neutral became tricky and acting on advice from the seller decided to clean the clutch plates, they looked OK flat with no warping and within manufacturers tolerances for thickness. On re-assembly engaging 1st gear stalled the engine with excessive drag. I replaced the clutch friction and plain plates with new just in case there was a problem I had not spotted but the same thing again excessive clutch …

Hi Everbody , I am going to replace my leaking oil seals and dust caps on my newly purchased XJ900s 2001 , could anybody tell me what weight of oil to use and how much to put in each leg please ? Cheers Dave

Hi, i'm new to this site, i have a 1980 XS 250, it runs ok on centre stand but when you put it in gear and let the clutch out it just stalls, i have tried a couple of sets of carbs and still have the same problem, anybody have any ideas? Thanks Andy.

can anyone tell me where i will get some big end shells for a xs 500 Thanks

Hello Bought a barn find XS 750 that was converted to a café racer, having trouble with the carburetors, is this something common with these bikes? Thanks MikeD

Hi everyone, just thought I'd introduce myself. Just bought an 82' XS 250 not starting so will be asking lots of questions soon. Once I get it running I hope to clean it up and get it into some sort of reasonable shape. My first ever bike was a XS 500 and that was 30 years ago, so just dipping my feet into the water again as regards bikes. Cheers.
