  1. i just picked up a 76 xs500 with about 17,000 miles and finding that when riding it and im stopped, it idles at 2500 or 3000RPMs. Is this normal or too high? Also, im noticing now that there seems to be a little white smoke that is visible when Im revving the engine thats coming from the right side exhaust only. When at idle, the white smoke is not visible. The left side exhaust doesnt have this problem. Is this an indication of a valve seal leak? Thanks.

    i need an exhaust sytem for my xs500 and i found jemco makes exhaust systmes for xs650s. But im not sure whether these parts are interchangeable. Tried looking online but no luck. I tried contacting jemco if they know about fitment but they're not familiar with xs500s and not sure of the exact measurements for fitment:( Does anyone know if the exhaust for an xs650 is compatible with an xs500? Any knowledgeable gurus out there that can help? Thanks. jemco exhaust
