xs500 dual front disc brake conversion
Jordan you can use xs1100 master cyl and left caliper and mount or if you can't find the left side stuff, SR500 caliper mounts on the left side. I tried the T pipe route but couldn't find room on an xs400 so used dual banjo on master cylinder ( no, not deer hunter music ) drewps

SR 125 Noise
if you've just bought the bike, get a manual and service everything (should do that anyway) check timing, cam chain tension and valves. that way you get to know the bike in your own time and not at the side of the road (especially in the middle of nowhere) and you have a bike you can trust. good luck drewps

SR125 running issues
moo do you have a fuel filter on the bike? did you check the pet cock and clean? how old is the battery, with electronic ignition you NEED good amps and volts anything under 12.5 is asking for trouble. check charging with multimeter and it should read 13 - 14 volts @ 3k rpm. a duff battery will give the symtoms you describe! drewps
