    for a tenner, count me in medium please! don't forget postage on top peeps
  3. didn't realise you had electronic ignition, I think you need to look at the TCI box first. drop speedshop a PM as he can give better advice on these things! BTW those are plugs and would need to be drilled aout and behind there should be screws.
  4. very nice mate
  5. aye but have your looked closly at the tail section?

    black's a good compromise. maybe when the price is in, we can have a vote using the poll system on here!
  7. dim headlamp is usually earth connection or lack of it. the castrol stuff is for bikes and its no problem on chrome.

    oldwankeronabike how's that? Paul, get a quote first for say 15 t-shirts with what you want on there (It looks pretty much there now) and put it to the forum. Peeps will commit more if they know how much.

    the front badges should go on the left tit! you can use the cloth badge graphic I did if you want Paul, was only pulling your plonker! not sure about the big yam logo on the back, too American for my liking! I think you should all have your forum names on them, woosies

    presumerbly just use bloke (i assume its black) and red, use a 12v battery to see what the other wire does!
  11. he's too busy muff diving off the coast of Manchester. hopefuly he'll come up for air soon. HB to vez anyway
  12. to the forum ST There's quite a bit to polish on an xs400 (SOHC), this is where you start a restoraion as you clean one bit up which shows up the rest of the bike. The next thing, its stripped down into bits awaiting cleaning!! For general bike cleaning, I got recommended the Castrol bike cleaner for Halfords, Its got acid in it and it works a treat. I just picked up some xswheels (the make, and its appropriate to have xs branded products on me bike)and I'm sure it has the same contents but cheaper. Drewps
  13. if you click on this link, you can find all the part numbers you want http://www.cmsnl.com/yamaha_model8287/

    I'd be interested mate. You have to pay me royalties on the design though Just for comparison, I got 24 t-shrts done last year for scouts and they cost £10 each. logo on front and a patch on the arm. Individual logos might be prohibitive price wise. I'll pin the post Drewps

    sounds like a ground(earth) problem and the earth is running through the lamp. or the switch is knackered lighting the lamp up, just disconnect the front and rear switches they are easy to get at. You sure its a jack plug?, they are used for guitars etc, prob mean a multiconnector. For condensors, there are two but they are joined together in a single body, I think you may be refering to the self cancelling unit. It can be disconnected which just means you have to cancel the signals yourself.
  16. use a socket, or do you mean studs? two nuts together real tight should get them out,or if replacing, weld a nut on them or use a stud extractor (about £15)
  17. yep, there was nothing there anyway
  18. tadpoles and blackpool rock
  19. I think its there to allow any excess under high revs to disperse. if you keep the bike upright, you can change the gasket no problem.
  20. yes mate, posted twice already
  21. yea, saw that inbetween the TT report
  22. I'd turn down the 750 spindle and put a sleeve insert within the "closed" end of the lower fork leg.
  23. you should piss the MOT OG, especially with your mechanical ineptitude prowess
  24. in my parts book it says X-8 for '78 xs250 type 1U5
