does any of u clever people out there know if i can put xj 600 carbs on a xj650 or wot other carbs are the same

i took the carb inlet rubbers off and found one of them corroded i gonna fit a new 1 ojn sunday see if it does the trick,hope so

not sure if thats where the starter solenoid is situated, usually near the battery or fuse box on most bikes

THEY WORK WELL BUT IF THE SUMP IS ALLOY U HAVE TO BE CAREFULL NOT TO CRACK IT,THEY ACT JUST LIKE A RAWPLUG ,U DRILL A HOLE TO THE RIGHT SIZE THEN SCREW THEM IN THEN SCREW THE BOLT IN,IF U GET IT RIGHT THEY WILL LAST FOREVER,BUT BE CAREFULL!

just cleaned them tday cheers but found a corroded inlet rubber mount do u think that might cause the problem

try an oil change,when you drop the oil if it is all creamy and gunky ,the head has gone,if its condensation it is only on the filler cap

sonds like yyour starter motor is jammed up or your starter solenoid is goosed

would of thought a negative wire would just need to be to any earth on the bike

i just got a 1983 xj650 every now and again it revs really high for no reason(bit scarey when riding)itook carbs off and noticed the inlet rubber mount was worn and cracked inside,any ideas how to repair it and would this cause it to rev up or could it be somewthing else,in need of some help of you clever people please

i have a y reg xj600 pre diversion that will only run when the mixture screw is turned out about 7 times instead of the recomended 2 and a half,any ideas why and what it will do to the engine if i leave it that way
