So picked up my long awaited 75 650 from a local shop after a full rebuild including Rephased goodies from Hugh, PMA, and PAMCO ignition system with all the goodies from mikesxs. The shop test road the bike for a week and called me to pick it up today. About 10 minutes away from the shop I...

I'm looking at buying an xs1100 and am looking for a little guidance. The concerns I have from the post below id the mileage on the bike and the do it yourself work that has been done. It does look like the guy did a good job but would love some outside advice. Thanks...

i just got them on ebay for Christmas and decided to go a different route. They were definitely used but seem to be in good shape. I'm no mechanic so not 100% sure on their condition but you can take a look for yourself.

I have calipers but you'll need to get the bracket ands spacer from pandemonium. PM me if you want to buy the callipers.

I can't flip the tubes because then I won't have holes to mount my new HHB fork brace. I have not done the filling yet only because if I can't mount the caliper I want to be able to sell them on eBay. I'm hoping someone on here will be able to tell me for sure that it can be done.

yeah I got the right kit. it just seems that the directions and reference materials don't match what i'm seeing and being very visual it's tricky for me to see it. here are some pics

I bought the pandemonium cycles bracket and a couple brembo gold line calipers off of eBay. I've been trying to test fit but in all the videos and pictures I've seen on pandemonium's website the mounting holes are on the bottom of the fork tubes whereas mine are on the top. I'm wondering if its...

I am having th exact same problem. I took the shaft out but didn't notice any damage not sure what's up. I ordered a new o e from mikes gonna see if that does the trick.

One rocker arm seems stickier than the others. I have not removed the rocker arm yet because the plug was not budging but was hoping someone could help me trouble shoot the issue so that when i do get it apart I can know what to look for. Thanks!

I am fully disassembling the motor for a rephase. Do I need to worry about covering anything when blasting?

I'm gearing up to tear down my 75 xs this winter to send the cam and crank to Hugh and to install 5th gear overdrive. While I'm in there ill most likely put in new gaskets and seals. Are there any tools I absolutely need to get the job done? I'm a noob and am planning on learning a lot during...

Thanks for that information. Where i'm getting concerned is, what i assume is the rim size. My rear tire reads 18 ( so I assume that means 18 inch rim) whereas the rear on Tc bros. sayss 16.

Wondering if anyone has an experience with the shinko tires from tcbros. I'm looking at whitewalls for my stock 75 xs. Any info would be greatly appreciated. I'm a little confused because my current tires read: 110-90-18 for the rear and 100-90-19 for the front. Tc bros. assured me their...

Very strange that you mention that about the clutch cable. When I turn my bars hard to the left, like if I'm parking or moving the bike. The engine revs up, but the throttle is not opening up and the slack is still in the throttle cable. The plot thickens

I have a 1975 xs, the engine is bone stock only recent modification is installing Hugh's new pipes. Now here is the issue: when the motor is hot it seems like the throttle holds open at certain rpms, no tach but usually around when I'm shifting. The weird thing is the throttle is fully closed...

That is a great question that I would love to hear more about. I've been thinking about a rephase to help eliminate vibration but the sticker price has been keeping me from pulling the trigger.

I was looking at the bar snake but with all of my control wires running inside the bars, I don't think that will be the best solution. Gloves and grips I guess ;-)

I am looking at the enormous amount of information on these threads and I am starting to have dreams of Hugh rephrasing my motor and me highway riding without being scared to death that the motor is going to vibrate apart. But I live in Minnesota far away from Hugh. I'm wondering if anyone has...
