    Your wife decides to go out with her friends drinking and dancing.... You're okay with it, because you get to watch sports and play on the Internet all night... You hear her stumble into bed around 4 and laugh knowing she's going to have a monster hangover.... You wake up the next morning and go outside to the family Volvo, which she used last night.... You sigh in relief because it's all in one piece.... You circle the car looking for dents and find none.... But .... Wait... Wait just a damn minute...

    to the YOC Gman clutch cable cover is just a cover and won't leak out oil. once fitted, turn the adjuster on the engine side till it lightly touches and back off 1/4 turn and lock off. adjust the lever for 5mm of play the best oil is clean oil!! change it regulary, in my xs400 i use millars 20w 50 in the summer! drewps

    176 in the Highway Code You MUST NOT move forward over the white line when the red light is showing. Only go forward when the traffic lights are green if there is room for you to clear the junction safely or you are taking up a position to turn right. If the traffic lights are not working, treat the situation as you would an unmarked junction and proceed with great care.

    shift forks? if its in the box then yes, if you mean the quadrent that spins the shift drum then no. if you are lifting the gears out, you might as well strip the case down and get it vapour blasted, don't paint it but leave bare, there is no paint good enough to paint with when PJ1 stopped doing yamaha silver you can rebuild an engine in a month, which should give you plenty of time for riding on your bike for summer!! its expensive to rebuild egines, it cost me £200 just to swop over all the innards with an NOS case off ebay ( gaskets and oil seals etc)

    easiest way would be to get a xvs loom. the xs250 will be nothing like it, as it carries different electrical components due to its age!!

    if your engine skills are as good as that mount sytem, that's gonna be one hellava engine!
  22. I recon they don't sound as good, there's no back pressure to seal the incoming charge on valve overlap so there might be some HP lost. the reverse cones are LOUD though!
