    zincing cost £100!! i think mine cost a £5 about 20 items!! ( 3 years ago though at RS chrome) they've been around for a while and advertise in CMM but I hav'nt used them. PJ1 is good, but not that good. i did look into painting stuff , but the vendors said for longevity get 'em plated!
  8. that something is located under the frame of the top spine under the rear of the tank ( in front of the battery) hopefully you can see the branch of the loom where it was! I am also assuming its the 2A2 model

    i've used 10/40 before and the motor didn't like it. that's why i went with 20/50 semi synth. i've used the bike for 3 years now and there's no wear in the bore or camshaft. yamaha recommend 20/40 but that's impossible to get over here in blighty. your right about using mineral oil in a newly built engine. i used duckams and thrashed it for 40 miles to bed in the bores etc. then used the 20/50, tried 10/40 and back to 20/50! when i rebuilt my bike i used assembly oil which is like treacle and sticks to surfaces. i used this because it was a while till i was able to fire it up and it gave it the best possible protection. i never used drab olive as i bought new bolts which were already done plus stainless throughout the rest of the bike. drewps
  15. yea, looks a different bracket and rear M/C, poss off an xs750! the xs400 M/c have their brackets in a diferent position
  16. if memory serves, that cut blue wire on the left hand switch pikkie, is a feed for the main beam headlamp via the LH switch. it might also power the horn!

  23. Your wife decides to go out with her friends drinking and dancing.... You're okay with it, because you get to watch sports and play on the Internet all night... You hear her stumble into bed around 4 and laugh knowing she's going to have a monster hangover.... You wake up the next morning and go outside to the family Volvo, which she used last night.... You sigh in relief because it's all in one piece.... You circle the car looking for dents and find none.... But .... Wait... Wait just a damn minute...
