fox on the run, you scream and every body comes, a running.....classic

exactly the same engine except for bore, valves and carbs btw please start a new thread as its

the seat is off the shelf an XR750 replica I belive try hot wing glass or omars for these sort of things

that bike is amazing, god find djcrow

impact driver with a tight fitting allen key or basj on an over size star/torx key

hey, they're called ice cream legs, coz girls want to lick them when they're HOT!! its stock wiring which i am taking out all the unessary bits coz I'm running with ignition, brake light and horn and that's it. minimum for the MOT

at the top of the fork slider there should be a collar which unscrews. you can see it better here

there was two different types of dohc xs400, 36hp and 45 hp you may have the 36hp one.

i'd check the worm gear on the clutch cover is not broken. its only plastic and I'm not sure how you can break a 200lb breaking strain cable unless its rotten!!

unfortunatly i am going away weekend with the family. Did you get rock radio to advertise it, i think it is free if you go on the website!!

dem links don't work for me!!

not really, could'nt hear them anyway

what says AT1 - 171537, the chassis number?

started off as kenny roberts modified xs650, then the idea grew from what was around. I get sideburn magazine which captures the spirit of the bikes, and also this..... on the mile long tracks they are on 120mph and 8o round the bends.

I've got the maxxis 3:50 on front and 4.00 on rear. for the flat track look I don't think I could go bigger on the rear check out the end my flat tracker thread in the street bike section for the tyres. bear in mind the bike is slightly raised by 2"

Wow that's some writing Bark!! love the choice of music

">" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="660" height="525"> thought I'd start it up as I have just upped the mains to 135 from the DOHC'c 125/127.5 runs a lot better now as you can hear, but its bloody loud and next door came out saying "Oh you got another bike?" hmm nice quiet engine as well (compared to the exhaust )

oh so disco very is discovery, yep i saw it. just couldn't understand what you were saying

but if you have an earthing issue ie the wire from the switch is earthing out, then you will have the symtoms you describe!! what about the bulb and holder itself? have you checked that (replace bulb in case its an intermittent fault)

glad to hear you got it sorted pretty easily, well done!

eh?

pretty neat eh?

correct, or the wire wouldn't be needed in the first place. All can think of is you have an earthing issue which will make the circuit drewps

need to strip the carb down (separatly) and if you can, use an ultrasonic bath. don't use lemon juice as it will blacken the alloy and left long enough, will corrode it. you can clean the outside by using baking soda blaster check settings against spec. i'd use 26mm for float height the mains screw into the emulsion tube which when unscrewed( and the diaphram removed) will fall out. there is a location tab to stop them turnig when the main jet is tightened. use a carb cleaner and compressed air to clean drewps

always fancied that, but I'd need a bigger bike as I think the xs400 would complain too much LOL
