alright. so im running out of space in the garage. And i rarely ride this thing anymore. I dont really wanna sell it since i built it and I honestly love it. But, why keep it around if im not guna ride it. I bought the fully torn down bike about 10 years ago. It had a tc bros hard tail welded...

Was getting wild the other day by doing some powerslides on a gravel road. ended up dragging my frame on a bump and broke off the little nipple that holds the kickstand spring on. Found the spring in the rocks. But it ended up falling out of my pocket on the ride home. Wondering if anyone has...

Anyone have info on a 11-68 xs650? It seems like a complete bike but can't find part info for anything under 1970.

might be a stretch, but im looking for a cv34 carb body. let me know what you may have. thanks

Im thinking of converting my bike to a foot clutch/jockey shift. So im looking for a shifter that I can cut very short and weld a rod to for the jockey shift. So I really only need end that connects to the engine. If anyone has a broken/bent shifter that they arnt using, please let me know...

Alright, just trying to brain storm why my bike isnt running the best and maybe someone has an idea of something I could change/try. Bike seems run just fine until im in 5th gear trying to get up to higher speeds. It just doesnt want to get above 55 mph. It revs out and doesnt want to go any...

Alright im looking for a 32 tooth rear sprocket. and of course im not looking to break the bank

So I have been noticing that my engine is slowly producing less power. It has stock gearing. But I have to be in 3rd gear around 25mph. Took it out on the highway last night and wasnt able to get above approx 60mph while full throttle in 5th gear. (I dont have a spedo). It seems to run just...

Just throwing this idea out there, but has anyone ever made a jockey shift where the shaft of the shifter has a joint where it pivots either in or out from the bike and engages/disengages the clutch? Think this is possible? The connection between the shifter shaft and the motor would have to be...

so im a huge idiot and im kicking myself really hard. Story; Got some nice, new and expensive vm34s. Used them a summer until one of the air screws kept unthreading itself and making the bike run lean on one cylinder. I dont know how this was happening as it has that spring pushing against...

alright. so im looking to get some grips that match the tc bros forward controls pegs. (the knurled ones) If I had a lathe I would be happy to make some, but I cant justify the price of a lathe for a set of grips. Anyway, im looking for grips that fit a 7/8" handlebar. But shoot, I have a...

So i think i might want some 7/8" knurled grips to match the pegs on the tcbros forward controls. Anyone know where to find some at a price that isnt crazy (not $100)? I wish tcbros made a set. something like these:

Alright. Pretty sure its a carb related issue. But, when it sits and idles, the left cylinder will miss fire randomly (roughly every 15 seconds). It continues to run, just misses once, then acts like nothing happened. But whenever im applying any throttle it runs great, its just when idling...

alright. I am running vm34s. I used them all last summer with no problem. yet as soon as I try them after my rebuild, i am having trouble. first of all, i changed my fuel line routing. the line goes from the petcock to the right carb with the left carb tieing into the line at about midpoint...

alright. heres some stuff for sale. throw me an offer if you think im asking too much. first off is a 3/8" male threaded petcock. bottom nipple. I bought it a couple months ago and it only got about 2 months of use. Its in perfect condition. its great for those peanut tanks. $15 + shipping obo...

Alright, my bulb burned out in my headlight and I cant find a new one locally or online for a worthy price. Plus I would like a bigger one then what I have now (4" I believe). So if anyone has a headlight around the 5" range with hi and lo filaments, let me know! And if anyone wants a 4"...

Pamco Fried, again Last week I thought I had this project done. Was running amazing and I prob put about 20 town miles on it. It was perfect. But then when it was running down a main street it just stopped. No sputter, just died. Felt like someone just flipped the kill switch. Wouldnt start...

alright everyone. Finishing up my build. I have some stock parts and some bobber parts that I ended up not using. All stock parts are off a '75 xs650. I will be more then willing to answer any question about these parts and take more pictures. I am looking for a carb holder for a '75 that will...

Looking for a carb manifold aka holder that will fit a vm34 carb. Are there two different models for an older xs650 versus newer xs650? looking on ebay, there seem to be two different models. ANyway, If anyone can help, that would be amazing. I only need the left one (as you look down from...

Alright, so I have this taillight and plate holder. PO bought it and had it on the bike but not wired up (I bought it as a project bike that wasnt wired yet). I didnt like it so I took it off and made a different one. Its brand new, never been wired up. It was placed on the axle when I bought it...
