  4. when I rebuilt my xs, it could idle but if you rev it, it would stay up there. I merely adjusted (richened) the pilot mix screw till it stopped doing it!!

    Clubbers in yorkshire have taken to using dental syringes to inject liquid Ecstasy directly into their mouths. This dangerous process is known as 'E by gum'
  10. high revs means you need to check the idling system as its letting in too much air!! either pilot screw adjustment or you may have overtightened the rubber inlets causing it to bow (use feeler gauge to check)
  11. I had a large tapping comming from the garage, it turned out it was my daughter practising her tap exams!!
  12. should be able to take off the caliper without removing the pad srews! take off the caliper with the 2 bolts on the fork sliders, the single 13mm black bolt holds the caliper onto the carrier. you can then get access to those pesky screws to take off the pads. they rust in peace all the time and you can either modify a stainless screw with a file, or buy a new kit with H springs and the screw.

    A broad yorkshireman went into the vet's. "I've come about t'cat." The vet asks, "Is it a tom?" "Nay, ah brung it wimmee."
  16. don't sell it, when your og's age you will be buying it back for £3k as "you miss that ole bike"

    you are most to the forum radar. Keep posting, good thread!
  21. I would say its to stop people other than mechanics messing with it, although its most unusual
  22. should be able to pick up an xs for £150, as with CB's the 400cc version is just the same with an identical looking engine
  23. Most people think it 's improper to spank children, so I have tried other methods to control my kids when they have one of 'those moments.' One that I found effective is for me to just take the child for a car ride and talk. Some say it's the vibration from the car, others say it's the time away from any distractions such as TV, Video Games, Computer, IPod, etc. Either way, my kids usually calm down and stop misbehaving after our car ride together. Eye to eye contact helps a lot too. I've included a photo below of one of my sessions with my son, in case you would like to use the technique. Sincerely, Your Friend
