Posted December 30, 201410 yr hay guys, thought id show off my new XT350,It was Christmas presant off my Mrs, I knew nothing of it until I she took me round me dads and there it was! its had a fair amount of work in the last two years, pretty much been restored! just needs a few jobs and will be sorted! oh and some off roady tyres
December 30, 201410 yr Nice find and a great pressy, it looks well looked after and well worth taking care off. TTB
December 31, 201410 yr I hope gave Mrs snake a big sloppy kiss cos she certainly deserved at least one, that's what I call a propper pressy.
December 31, 201410 yr Yep as above worth keeping both of them, get your wife to call my wife I want an FJR1300 !!!
January 1, 201510 yr Author cheers guys, took bike out for first decent shake down today, think needs jetting with the exhaust thats on it as splutters every now and between 4000 and 5000 rpm which im guessing is between carbs! other then that it runs amazing didnt miss a beat and starts first kick when hot! only downer on the day was the three cafes we went to were closed and ended up in a chippy!!however 80ish road miles was good after 3 years of not riding
January 5, 201510 yr Good to hear the road test went well, if theres no baffles installed then theres a chance that it will want jetting. Other option would be to just make some and install on an end cap. TTB
January 6, 201510 yr Author yo ttb there is a single baffle in the can, however i do think it want jetting, the can is very stright through! if holding 4000ish rpm it has a cough as you traveling along, its fine at any other rpm!
January 6, 201510 yr At 4000 rpm thats when the other carb kicks in so it maybe worth adjusting the throttle linkage. TTB
February 13, 201510 yr Author not really sure weather to start a projects thread for this bike?? been doing some tweeks, new tyres, mud guard brace and leavers fitted! love it on and off road! at the moment a new tool box is in the works
April 2, 20159 yr Hi! Nice bike. What year is it? I've just finished engine rebuild on my 1986 XT 350 & it's running smoothly.
