    Ideas for under the seat brake light?

    Thanks fredintoon, Wish I could take credit for the paint and the tank, but alas, I purchased it from the PO as such. I've tried on multiple occasions to ask him how he did it, along with some other mods he did, but he doesn't seem to be the chatty type. Most of my work has been getting it in...

    Making custom side panels - any ideas?

    Played around with my side panels a bit last week. Took the panels that were on the bike and cut out pieces with the dremel, then cut out perforated 16ga steel panels to fit behind. Held in place with pop rivets.

    Rear wheel squeak

    Hey guys, I've not been able to do much with the bike lately, but most recently I replaced the bolt to the brake backing and brake stay arm. I got on to take her for a spin yesterday and noticed a decent squeak coming from the rear wheel. Nothing else has changed on the bike. The bolt was...

    Help with ordering correct ignition for 82 xs

    Thanks everyone for the great info for the install and purchase. I have everything installed. Battery is nice and charged. However, when I go to start her, she turns over but does not fire up.

    Help with ordering correct ignition for 82 xs

    Also, I've read that some folks have placed their ultimate coil in a different spot than the original. Is this recommended? Or will the ultimate coil be fine with the setup shown on the yamahaxs650.com website? I want to be as safe as possible with the bike and I see others are concerned having...

    Does it need to be replaced? Or is it just there if you purchased the rod for points?

    Help with ordering correct ignition for 82 xs

    Thanks again for the help guys. Bushings installed. I'm installing the advance rod but having some difficulty. Mostly can't figure out how to get the advance replacer cap to work on the rod. It seems as if it would fit correctly without the disk that is on the end of the rod, but that disk...
