presumerbly just use bloke (i assume its black) and red, use a 12v battery to see what the other wire does!

he's too busy muff diving off the coast of Manchester. hopefuly he'll come up for air soon. HB to vez anyway

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

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.

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)

yep, there was nothing there anyway

tadpoles and blackpool rock

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.

yes mate, posted twice already

yea, saw that inbetween the TT report

I'd turn down the 750 spindle and put a sleeve insert within the "closed" end of the lower fork leg.

you should piss the MOT OG, especially with your mechanical ineptitude prowess

in my parts book it says X-8 for '78 xs250 type 1U5

yamaha always fitted different size jets, they must test the engines at manufacturing stage and offset any descrepancies. try Allens preformance, granby's, motocarb, nrp

I think we sjould encourage innovation, he would probably know the limitations having gone to the trouble of designing and making something. It does need testing though, I suggest we start with Dt's SV

それは私が考えたものだ

no hand on chin though

not sure what to say about this. Its Japanese and it mad

aye I'm from the area, but judging on your moniker I don't ride like a nutta so you might be bored riding with the drewps

no floats set the fuel level in the carbs. the petrol tap shuts off the fuel, that's why we have them.
