    Alto 8 pack clutch kits

    I really never had the problem of not being able to get neutral with clutch pulled in with either of the bikes, every now and then it might take a few tries. I will say that everything is smoother with the new clutch and adjustments.

    Alto 8 pack clutch kits

    Just wanted to give a shout out to ippytattoo. I purchased a couple clutch setups a year ago and just now got around to installing one of them. Wow, what a difference the 8 disc makes....the bike hooks up and shifts so nice. I am going to replace the clutch on the second bike this week. Great...

    Omar's....yes, no, maybe, never again, never mind?

    I had the worst experience ever with O'mars / Robert. I ordered thousands of dollars in parts, with the longest lead time quoted at 2 to 3 weeks. It took several months and a attorney threat to get my parts. A few of the parts I had problems with (brake parts) and ended up ordering replacement...

    Luthor's Build

    SolidLex....Love the quality of your build...I wish I had your patience. McMasters is the best, not the cheapest by any means, but you order and the parts are at your door the next day. I have purchased a ton of metric bolts, nuts and just about anything you can think of. The bolts are almost...

    Headlight Issues

    Thanks Grinder for the info. I checked the charging system as outlined and everything checked out. I ended up pulling everything apart and checking all the grounds. After plugging the light reserve device back in, everything worked.

    Headlight Issues

    Hello, I am hoping that someone might point me in the right direction on a headlight issue. I have looked through the threads and have not found my problem. I am running a high power LED light for the headlight and some smaller LED lights for running lights. After installing everything worked...

    XS650 with R6 front/rear conversion

    I can't see how you can get a 180 tire in a FZR swing arm and get the chain alignment/cleanace. The tire will hit the chain towards the front of the swing arm. I have maybe 3/8 clearance with a 140 tire....make sure and do your measurements before going to far down the road.

    XS650 with R6 front/rear conversion

    I just got done doing what you are asking about and I found a lot of the information here in the forum and the rest surfing the web. Unfortunately, I didn't bookmark any of the links. I used 2007 R6 front end. I found two ways to approach the R6 stem. You can grind out the bottom of the...

    MonoShocking advice needed

    The light is reasonable at $170 in comparison to what is out there. I haven't used this light much, so not sure about the heat, but if it is like the lights on my sand car, then they stay much cooler than HID's. I only have up/ down & side to side adjust ment. If I need to narrow the width of...

    MonoShocking advice needed

    Just took a few pictures and as you can see, I need to adjust the angle.....a lot. I hope the light isn't to bright.

    MonoShocking advice needed

    The headlight is made by Baja Designs and is LED. We run them on our sand cars and they are very bright. I have a couple thin LED lights coming that I am going to mount vertical in the front plate as running lights and the Baja Design light is wired to the high beam switch

    MonoShocking advice needed

    You guys would have to pick out the only shitty weld on the bike :mad: That weld was done upside down after a hernia surgery (same day). I agree that the tabs I used are to light weight and they will be coming off when I strip the bike down. Thanks for the input.
