it must have a clutch, a kick start wont work on that engine so spinning the wheel would be the only way

just got back from the thundersprint, excellent day made better coz the weather woz good. missed Kev (up.yours) again, managed to phone him and went to the beer caravan where he said he was, phoned him and it rang out. never mind chris walker, bradley walsh and steve parish was there and chris walker raced the new Norton, WOOO!! it was ace. parish had the bmw 1000rr. got some peeks polish and a garryflex alloy abrasive for that brushed alloy look. NW200 next weekend wooooohoooo!!

i just use "simple" dial vacuum guages this is his next version using Blackpool tower

can't see anything with that model code i have 4R5, 4G8, 5G8, xs400H. and 4R4 xs400SH. 4G5 xs400SE. 4G8 XS400SG. 17K XS400RH. can you post a picture? cheers

tumblers have moved, try wiggling the key and turning at the same time. you will have to get a new one (I would) so try different keys and eventually you may have to break it.

hello

there's a 1L9, never heard of a that one. xs250 only with 3n6

01ps float level could do with resetting, and i think that you still have crud in the carbs. ultrasonic cleaning is best, i'd give the carbs to a pro carb cleaner and they can do wonders. if you give the first 3 letters/numbers of the engine number i could tell ya what you have (prob sg or h)

ooo shiney bits! that engine is cool, is it upgraded at all, a few have put in remote oil coolers and over bored to 750+cc shell cams etc

John will like this one.....

well post some pikkies on the job so far, that way it'll nag you to do a bit.

before 5:30 as i'm at a choir concert. the wife is singing at manchester cathederal

make sure the battery has 12.5 volts or the cdi won't work!

hey your mobile again Vez!! ride it lik eyou stole it

hope you had a good time? how's the flat tracker comming on?

looks like it will be dry at the weekend, Kev, you still kept your mobile number?

you have the dohc xs400, there are sohc variants and tbh they only have the word yamaha on them that's similar!! If you go to the top of this section there are downloads you can do. ( pioneer has them all but most peeps CBA looking) there is a maxim one there, i know coz i supplied it!! clutch looks like is usually adjusted at the engine first and then handlebars last. get the manual, have a read and if you have any more Q's post a topic. to the YOC

to miami myami

i would say go back to basics, retime the valve train could be 180' out. I'd also check the ignition timing just to be sure. can't help with a how-to sorry

not just the m6, also that boring bit along dumfries, and then the m/way to colraine. all the ferries are booked up, and have paid for the flights keeping fingers crossed.

thats the link to the same bike. its just the layout is mashed up!!

I think this is what you wanted? linky but the blog's changed

Yep, Mike and I are goonf to the NW200 in colraine next weekend. Not going on the bikes this time as sitting for 11 hours in the pissing rain on the M6 was not fun. So we're flying and guess what, the frigging Volcano has closed the airports. I think I am jixed going to NI
