Hi Guys,

I'm having some issues with my XT600e engine head and I will need to replace it in short future unfortunately.

One of the exhaust bolt is broken from the 4 and the spark plug comb is on the lose also.

I have found "cheap" engine head from US ebay but all of them are for old XT600.

So my question is that the "new" 2003 XT600e engine head is compatible with the old XT600 models? (2003 the last XT600 model the changed to new model XT660 as you know)

For example: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Yamaha-XT-600-NC-1985-XT600-Cylinder-Head-and-Rocker-Box-Rockers-/161069941201?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&hash=item25808441d1

Or if someone would know some proper solution how to get it repaired, then that would be much appreciated. (broken bolt in one of the exhaust and broken spark plug holder)

Thanks very much in advanced!

I will upload shortly my home made electronic chain oiler system which costed £2 exactly!

Hi Again,

Seems to be this is the solution for my issue: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/like/271137019355?hlpht=true&ops=true&viphx=1&lpid=95&device=c&adtype=pla&crdt=0&ff3=1&ff11=ICEP3.0.0&ff12=67&ff13=80&ff14=95&ff19=0

I guess this is not that bad as I thought.

Although the repair wont be easy because I have to take off the full engine and separate it.

I'll post the DIY chain auto oiler system on this weekend with loads pictures.

Have a good one guys!
