Picked this up for relatively cheap. It is such a blast to ride! Had some trouble with the stock carb, but that all went away with a new VM36. Completely different bike with this carb. I had been looking for one for quite a bit, I think it complements the XS650 well.

Hello, to those of you who ditched the stock rear triangle, I am looking for a rear hoop, not sure of the length I need but possibly from the shock mounts back. Does not matter if fender mounts are cut off. Thanks

I like the look of bare metal, which is kind of a pain to maintain. I thought I'd share something I have been trying for about a year now and seems to work: penetrol. Just brush it on and it dries hard, clear, smooth and with a bit of shine. If there's rust it turns it dark and stops it, so you...

Looking for the metal shrouds for these. Thanks!

Hi, disclaimer: I am new to this, but mechanically inclined and have read the carb guide. My bike is a 78 SE, got it completely stock except a Boyer ignition and it still mostly is. The bike had been sitting for some years but started well enough, although it was evident the carbs needed a...

Hi, I need a piece of fender, ideally about a 1/3 of this would be enough. I will likely paint it so finish does not matter as long as there's no dents. Any one have some scraps laying around? Thanks!

Hi everyone, I just acquired a '78 xs650 special. Like so: Cleaned up, it fired right up but needed a carb cleaning. Did that and it runs pretty well now. Checked the points and found this: The right side looks like this: This fell out on this side: What is this ignition? Anyone...
