So it doesn't matter the model you pick it just runs off your spark plug wire, power and gps? Or do I need to call them and get one for my xs and tell them what all is done to it?

With the trail tech Vapor would that work with my bike do you know or are they bike specific. on the site it seems to be offered for only the 2000 and newer but they have all that my little heart desires in one setup...

I'm looking to add a wireless GPS style speedo to my bike and am looking to see if any of you have one on yours you would recommend. Thanks in advance for the help!

Unfortunately the carbs didn't come with the bike but it is a numbers matching one. I put the pamco in two years ago so I don't remember for sure but I'm pretty sure I didn't have to replace the rod or bushings just the magnet and the pamco plate on the one side. It runs great but I ran the...

Thanks for the help, I have the 60 degree hall effect pamco kit with the e-advance. I ordered the green dual output from mikes. Thanks again!

As far as I can tell its a 79-80 xs-sg 3g1 but the coils are from up to 79 then 80 to whatever... I have the pamco ignition how do I know what coil to order??? my numbers are 2FO-211130. Thanks!

Here is a video of the smoke as well as a pic of the plugs, I took it out around the block a few times and the plugs are dry. video link below.

I did a compression test tonight and each side is reading 150, it would be lower if the seals or rings were bad right? the puff of smoke is only when the throttle returns and the plugs are wet looking, not sooted up in any way where as before they were a little black running rich. It has good...

the valves were .008 on the exhaust and .006 on the intake so out of adjustment and noisy so I put them at .004 and .002 following some videos online. curious if it is carb adjustment at all or is it just sounding like my rings are bad to everyone?

I adjusted my valves last night and started the bike today to find this... Idles great with maybe a very faint grey puffs of smoke from the exhaust but when you give it throttle and let off it will rev with no smoke but when it comes back down it puffs a small cloud of light grey smoke. It...

Thanks guys! I'm going to adjust it when I get back home tonight.

just took the tensioner off and it does not have a washer between the spring and the threaded part, there should be correct? even when I adjust it out to the point of flush when I hand spin the engine again it pops out the same way like the picture.

1 or 2mm past the edge or up to the edge? Like I said when it is running its pretty flush but turn it by hand and its out quite a bit...

I am a little confused, when the bike is running the pin moves just to the flush point of the shaft it slides in but when the bike is off and I spin it by hand it goes almost 1/16 past the end of the shaft... should I be adjusting that out then to make it flush from there?? Thank you all!

I have split tanks on my build and set up a vent tube from the top of the second tank while the main tank has a vented cap... filled up the bike with no leaks 3 days ago, went to take it out today and as soon as I moved it the gas from both tanks dumped out from the vent tube on the second tank...
