YamaHead

I'm with Merv here..... Goff's got her beat Hands-Down

Had a similar issue with my XT600 Frank..... Check the condition of your carb manifolds.....if they're cracked, they'll suck a fair amount of air through there & cause the backfiring you speak of. I was advised to reseal the mounting surfaces between the carb boots & the cylinder head with a thin coat of RTV gasket sealer.....as my boots were in great shape......this did cure the problem. Might be worth a try.... Best of Luck with 'em Oh, & BTW..... to the forum!

Sweet 125 mlc!......Top Job!

Sweet Ride Cynic! Reminds me of this 1 that a local has tarted up..... Enjoy that proper smoker SupaMoto!

Cages are a necessary evil....UNfortunately! My biggest issue is trying NOT to drive my YamaHauler like I ride my bikes!

Clutchless upshifts on shaft driven bikes proves to be quite fluid & smooth......not creating the dreaded typical chassis jacking from the shaft final drive. If they're done correctly.......it doesn't hurt a thing.

Sweet FZ Fabiano! to the forum

to the forum Nice work on your XS........I used to have 1 of those.......Great bike!

Send some of that Liquid Sunshine this way, will ya? Gonna be 102F here for the next 3 days!

Nice exhaust note

Amazing likeness to our Mistress of Darkness

Used to have an XJ550 Seca with the same scenario...... Ended up being the starter circuit cut-off relay......located right behind the steering head, near the coils. Yanked the relay & ran a jumper wire across the connector to complete the circuit..... Worked great after that! HTH

to the forum Freedom Fighter Used to have an '82 XJ550 Seca that would do the same thing when the Pilot Jets started to get dirty..... Pretty sure a good carb cleaning could cure that issue.

Perfect addition for WF's vehicle collection!

BIG Congrats Goff!

My thoughts EXACTLY.....well worth the money!

Big-Bore YamaThumps are BulletProof! Super easy to look after & maintain....& quite affordable to operate.

...... Careful what you wish for.....

Same here!......Nothin' says "Manly" better than some matte finish black paint.

My trusty YamaHauler...... Transplanted this into her a few years back.... my $300 specimen of fine German Engineering ..... The Ol' Lady's ride..... & can't forget the 'Goose! ..... Oh!....& the Rail collection......

That Mac set-up isn't too bad for the $$...... Vance & Hines also makes a sweet 2 into 1 for this bike.

Nice Work DTMF Sure makes me miss my 400Seca

To save weight would be my 1st guess....
