    fuses blow because there is a wiring problem or something is earthing out (eg rectifier) putting 20a fuses when its suposed to be 10 amp is looking for trouble and is not the way to repair electrics.
  3. I'm running 33 front and 36 rear on my sizes!! and you can have tubeless tyres, but as MD says you gotta get some tubes in there. the only xs 400's with tubeless are the dohc ones!

  5. try here no mention of the 500, but i'd email them anyway bought an eletronic box from this guy gigavolt in germany, its still going strong
  6. shouldn't be any wobble. there's a mismatch of tyres there as mdsims says. also check steering head bearings for notchiness and slackness. what are your tyre pressures?

  13. drewpy replied to wild foamy's post in a topic in Yamaha Workshop
    I got that when I put my floats too low. Had to rev and slip the clutch to get going. this is a weak fuel symtom ( for 4 strokes anyhoo!)
  14. what tyres are you running?

  16. drewpy replied to grsemnky76's post in a topic in Naked
    grsemnky76 get some new oil circulating around the engine before you fire it up (take out spark plugs first) gap contacts and time the igntion, other than that ,I reckon you will still have problems with fuel gumming up the carbs!!

  18. not sure what you mean. the speed rating is what you need for safety at speed. 90 is the profile of the tyre.

    we had a fuel spill near a roundabout. the police closed that part of the road whilst waiting for the cleaners. You can normally smell the stuff before you see it, then its keep the bike upright till you find dry road!!

    Hey, Happy Birthday buddy!!
  23. 10 years standing and you can't find a blockage!!! the whole thing will be gunged up with waxy spent fuel. you need to strip the carbs down completly and send them to merv so he can put them in his ultrasonic bath.
  24. i haven't any spare, but you can get them from ciriusconinc in canada, they also operate on ebay

    potluck! it will be a simple open or closed circuit for the bike to work. follow the wires into the headlap and cut or join in there making sure the ends are isolated from other wires drewps
