Cleaned the carbs yesterday on 79 xs400
need to replace the float valve, it sounds like its worn. sometimes you can just tap the float bowl (gently) to release the valve and it may work after that! xs750 is a triple, if it has singular leads off the coil then you should be ok assuming you have contact ignition! drewps

xs650 ignition coils on xs400, possible?
mine are 5k ohms resister caps, but the vendor I bought them off (carrot cycles) says its only for radio interferance purposes. So i assume it can't hurt either way unless you have a TCI ignition which may expect a certain value. drewps

you can still buy the complete neutral housing. it tends to split being plastic! there is a ball bearing at the clutch end of the pushrod, so i'm not too sure if it will be drawn back into the engine when the rod is pulled. the rods usually rust near the seal causing the seal to fail, so you may need to renew the rod as well.

exhaust headers/headpipes
they are off a custom version methinks as the pipes swoop more, the 2a2 models are more straight down at the front.
