nice 1. checked pistons. I have spare top end. But will need honed and rings to... They are stamped inside yamaha / Art / 2 / Also they measure 54mm... Will this be standard size...

think the bike had stood a while. so its possible the rings mite be stuck. or its scored the barrel and worn the rings out. suppose be best to strip and investigate. is it easy enough to get the gasket and rings? you wouldnt no the prices of this gear... cheers 4 advice...

Bike started chucking out smoke on tickover . quite a bit really. and only on one pot. Plug looks good though and colour indicates good running engine, so whats the problem. Anyone know. Is it the rings on the piston. valve oil stem seal... ive got a spare cylinder head in case its the seals. But will have to order some rings if this is the problem... Any help be good... cheers...

seems like i have a limiter on my bike at 50mph new set of points is on my xs, ive ordered new condensor, and noticed today one of the coils is getting hot, (aftermarket one) the side were the missfire is... Question. Is it normal for this to heat up. Other side stays cool? There is a coil on ebay for xs250, will this be ok for my xs400?
-
nice1... i will check the condensor in the morning cheers for that
-
got everything balanced still missis on tickover so going to re-new the condensor see if this helps out. checked the genorator timing, took cover of and oil came out, and wen u tip the bike on its side oil comes out the hole at the bottom. m8 rekons crank seal is bust and need to strip the motor down. hope not! any ideas if this is supposed to happen

Not mine but m8s RD125LC. He's deciding to take test after 20yrs o me aggin him he decided to get 125 and ride this for six month, and take lessons and ride at the same time, fair do's... Problem. He managed to get the bike to run right after re-jetting and re-jet and ermmm re-jeting . And now has a leaking cylinder head gasket So he rang me the other nite and dreamt of fitting a Big Bore Kit while the head was off ( as you do ) So here is the Big question. Can you still buy Bore Kits for these? How Much? And where? I will happily pass on any info... Big Bore Kits, i remember my MB50 65cc Ortisa bore kit -60mph- at 16, sweet
-
cheers for that... Got the bike running now and went for 100ml run and everthing seemed ok. exept the poppin and banging when you shut throttle off. gettin the carbs balanced at the weekend see if this helps matters out.
