drewpy

to the forum TAT! did you fit the K&N's your self or were they already fitted drewps and used as such?

hi Dan, enjoy your new bike. Ian has a "little" problem? better see a therapist

bought loads from USA and with UPS you always pay customs duty value over £18. If you go general air/snail mail I can usually get away with it if they put "gift" on the package.

Akela is cubs the pikkies don't do the place justice and to top it off, there were loads of bikes around, the most popular were the BMW GS's although i did see an MT01, Mk1 le mans and couple of trikes. and of course the harleys are everywhere!!

hope the weather gets better, then you can really enjoy the bike!!

I wouldn't bother except to stick with the recommended lube. any messing may affect the wet clutch!

finally some pikkies me and my son and daughter at the top of Jockenspitz ( can't spell it) looking down onto Bach from Jockenspitz went for a swim here, no idea where it is as the coach driver took us day out at Fussen, about 2 hours drive away into Germany. this is where the castle is that is used in the film chitty chitty bang bang ( the white one)

felix, you are better off getting them from the UK ebay. search for "xs250" "xs 250", they have the spokes with disks front and rear!! ( but not all 250's) I have two sets for each of my 400's

should fit as the holes are the same and I dont belive yamaha changed their castings. I think you also have a camshaft seal gone, but check first that the camshaft doesn't rock whilst still bolted in the head!! ( worn) drewps

whats wrong with the http://www.xs400-forum.de/ site? there are sites within yahoo groups, but they are no good. why do you want an american site felix?

or thread lock/spring washer

if you have the money to burn why not!!

thnks for the link

first question is, why do you want to go for a disk conversion

still listed mate, http://www.georgiawatersports.com/ http://www.nwvintagecycleparts.com/ SKU: 95821-10145-00 BOLT, FLANGE as for the square tank, there are loads in UK ebay!

they are not stripped, they are turning the inside lower damper rod. you need to get a 15mm dowel and chamfer the end then ram it down the inside tube to lock the damper rod after taking out the spring. A grip in the vice to hold it and then try the allen again. it will be tight. next time you do this you need to "shock" the allen off or it will turn again!! drewps

to theforum wtf61! try a little oetrol additive as I think the carbs are displaying a blocked pilot hole at the top front of the carb. this tends to hang the revs. it usually gets worse when hot!! have a look at the sticky at the top of this section as there are some usefull links for you to try. drewps

some cool shit, only shows up in UV one for you Goff? http://www.slightlywarped.com/crapfactory/...ighttattoos.htm

you can get the lower bolts from yam dealers still! you can also get pet cock rebuild kits off ebay

Hi Peeps, just got back from 10 days in Austria with the scouts, white water rafting, mountain biking etc. in Stanzach, Lech Tal. bloody knackered now as it was a 26 hour coach journey. I'll catch up over the next few days drewps

just google, not sure who sells them in usa, but allens performance seels them in UK. I have seen some new xs650 34mm on ebay.com, should just need to re jet for the bike!! drewps

I shoved a clear washer tube in the lower float bowl with the carbs off the bike and clamped level. easy to do and was 2mm from top of float bowl as per specs. drewps

white smoke = fuel, float too high or leaking for cafe look I liked the xs750 tank on the 400!! try new mikuni flat slides, they'll cost though

chocolates good too
