  2. sounds like you have the wrong ignition switch if you had to mess with it . I got an NOS ignition switch for the xs a few years agao and they changed a few wire colours and had to check the wiring diagram to see which did what
  3. well done, makes it all worth while to be recognised

    cool,. i have the '91 XJ engine in my FZ600. there was one at Stafford for £750
  9. Mechamex were doing this, they run the TZrd350 you can see in the other pikkies, the airbox was rather nifty with the rad in the oil catcher the front wheel will pick up crap, so I assume having them outboard might make sense. I don't think they would have made the spannies as is and just to forget about the rest of the bike
