    Gordon Scott 2 into 1 exhaust, effects on powerband

    I really want to run a 2 into 1 exhaust system on my 74 TX. I've read reviews on Mikes 2 into 1 system mentioning a noticeable detriment to midrange power. Can anyone give me first hand experience with the Gordon Scott 2 into 1 pipes? A boost in the top end would be welcome, i spend alot of time...

    Troubles downshifting in any gear

    I'm having issues downshifting while in any gear. You downshift once, and then after that it feels like the shifter isnt returning to its normal position, so you have to lightly lift it with your toe before shifting down again. This was a sporadic issue for a while, then went away for a few...

    35mm fork seals on 74 TX forks?

    I've got a couple sets of new 35mm fork seals, can i make them work on a set of 74 TX650 forks? Obviously there is that 1mm difference in fork tube size, but the seals are designed to grab onto the tubes pretty tight so maybe that wouldnt be an issue. Thanks!

    I bought the Dime City Brat Seat

    I found the Dime City Brat Seat a while back but it was never in stock, until a week ago when i got an email saying they got them into their store. So i ordered one immediately to see how she'd fit. Well, it doesnt fit, at least not yet. But the seat itself is fantastic and very high quality...

    Buying without a title: My experience

    So i took a risk a few months ago and bought a title-less XS650. Now i was told the history and was sure it wasnt stolen, so i made the purchase. I knew acquiring a title was possible but was rather clueless as to how it worked. Everything i read was either a horror story or a half assed...

    My strange fork caps/Forks work terribly

    Hey guys, can you identify my fork caps? I havent seen another set like these before. They have a little nipple of sorts coming out of the side, but it lets air in and out so the fork tubes arent sealed. Isnt that detrimental? Since i purchased my XS the forks have been lousy, they sag...

    '79 XS - Gravel Tracker

    Well i finally got my hands on my first XS650, and its a blast! My plans are to make it into sort of a budget tracker, something i can buzz through town on and drift down logging roads and trails. Its got 8k on it but looks like it has seen better days. Hadnt been run in a long time but i threw...

    Good compression, smokes like crazy.

    I just purchased my first XS650, a '79 Special. Only 8k, but hadnt been running in a while. I replaced the plugs and battery, through some gas in it, and it started second kick! No filters on it, open pipes, dirty carbs, and god knows how old the oil is, but it runs great all things considered...
