its usual to use RT and LT marks on the crank for timing, hence the reason they are there. what sort of oil are you using?

oil shouldn't be leaking out and it can only come from the camshaft seal or the joint between the cam cover and head which has no gasket or sealant. I have 2 small holes on mine andI assume they are in case of water ingress/condensation For a cafe racer, i recommed the xs750/850 three's one on youtube and it looks great. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Owwd19VDbpg

vic, reminds of the 80's song " is Vic there?" by department S

exhaust shouldn't be that low, check the mountings

V nice and a bargain!!

plus you get the nice weather to ride it in, lucky cnut!!

that explains why I don't see any advertising

your html was all over the place, it just needs the IMG tags which are copied from you photobucket account! dural (duraluminum) is a hard aluminium used for stressed items. this is not my project but some thing i pinched off german ebay at the time. it looks like all you need is the plate and the caliper alingns with the disk! drewps

you won't get a direct replacement, but you can fit 300mm fzr400 disk and GXR 4 piston caliper with dural mounts. BTW I've sorted out out your picture

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
