  1. check out fowlers online fiche. the clutch schematic in haynes is wrong as it has the parts in the wrong order. do a search on this site as I have covered my FZ clutch fix (same engines)
  2. everything you always wanted to know about powerbands http://www.planetash.net/gos/powerbands.html
  3. nice one, great when its new. I remember my xs was really hard to kick on a recent rebore.

    Sold the FJ.

    maybe get on the 2stroke club, they are a great buch and can put feelers out for a suitable donor bike. now there's a big gap left from the departed FJ, you need to fill it quickly or something else comes in its place.
  5. congrats to the family. that "rear view" is a "cracker"
  6. it's usually really good, maybe they lost money that year and no-one wanted to commit to another
  7. 'tis a sad day, Lotherton Hall classic bike show cancelled this year http://www.vjmc.com/events.html
  8. Kon, there are a few xs250 owners on here but not heard from them for quite a while. is it the early SOHC or the rare DOHC model? 400's share the same running gear

  10. ok thanks for the heads up, just wantng the spring ATM as I've spent loads and just wanted to get the spring and then overhaul the shock over winter
  11. I don't know, hindsight is a great thing to have and that was a long way to reverse. If you see someone reverse it's like " what's he doing?" then it "hello!!" then "WTF" .
  12. put an inline filter on it too, as the tank may be full of rust dust
  13. I would be a bit more patient and get the proper one. I have 3 ignitors for my fz "just in case"
  14. hi Folks, I'm trying to get the measurments for the R6 rear shock spring so I can get one made up that is stronger. does anyone have one off the damper and can they measure the internal diameter and length please? ta velly much Drewps
  15. I use a free LG app on my phone, easy to navigate and uses a touch pad for the pointer.
