the caps simply screw into the wire, put the rubber sleeve on the wire first then slide it over the cap when fitted, with the coils unscrew the knurled plastic nut at the front of the coil, inside that you will see a rubber grommet remove the grommet put the nut over the wire thread facing the coil, then place grommet over wire, inside coil you will see a metal pin push wire into coil over pin, then slide grommet and nut up to the threaded part of the coil and screw up, the nut and grommet will clamp the wire in merv

A bike made from donated parts with it's very own heart transplant. Papworth gave LC club member Foxie a heart transplant in 2006, so we thought we would give something back. The bike is to be raffled off at this years CMM show in Stafford, 19th October. All proceeds to go to Papworth Hospital. Tickets priced at £1 each and are available by sending a cheque and SAE to: The LC Club PO Box 7226 Wellingborough Northants NN8 9BZ

I presume you mean the cap like this in which case if you have one you can open look underneath it ands see the position of the catch, you can then take a bent screwdriver and push it under the locked one merv

you can undo the cap with a bent screwdriver just push it under the lock end, in england yuo can still get keys from a yamaha dealer just from the number or a decent key specialist merv

look around the bottom of the race /stem you can see the join Take a small cold chisel (not a woodwork one) and tap it into the joint it should gradually part from the fork stem once it starts too move you can then lever it up, be careful not too damage the surface of the stem if you do clean it up before you try to fit the new bearing, and do not forget to put the seal in Merv

the crank can be rebuilt the big end ball bearings will be replaced with the rest of the bearings and pins that they run in PJ engineering will do this for you they have a collection and return service, pj engineering they did my aircooled 400 crank a couple of years ago i think it cost £160 at the time too rebuild you get new rods bearings and lab seal all pressed together and trued up, Norbo may have some exchange units cheaper but rebuilt using the good parts from the crank not all new parts rdlc crazy merv

Drewps Dont know bog all about modern XS,s so i stand corrected anfd thanks for doing that my specialist subject RD 250/350/400 aircooled before 1981 A good way of translating parts is go to german ebay enter the name of the part you are tryingto translate in the search box and hey presto you should have a picture merv ebay de Bremmszange = caliper? yes Hohlschraube = brake line? No quite literally hole bolt, but banjo bolt too us, to take 2 lines you will need another line of course Handbremmszylinder = master cylinder? yes
