    Fresh bobber build, need carb help

    Opened up the clutch again. 2 issues: 2 plates are +- 2.7mm. So that's not good. The other issue is one broken damper cush spring. Ordered new High performance 7 plate clutch set + cush springs. Question: is it neccesary to soak the plates in oil overnight prior to installation?

    Fresh bobber build, need carb help

    Thanks for the help. I ordered everything I need new. When removing the RH exhaust it was obvious there was a leak at the exhaust seal. Probably the reason why it popped on that side. Got new seals inbound!

    Thanks for all the advice! I will change out the boots and re-adjust the float level. As for the rubber plug, there was a new one installed. It was just taken off for taking the photo. What about the jetsize for the jet here? It says 130 and it goes in the hole where my thumb sits.

    Okay. I just opened the carbs again. Turns out In the carb bowls I have a 132.5 main jet and 42.5 pilot jet. At the back of the carb where the airfilter goes I have a 130 jet. Also I noticed I have a adjustable needle with what looks like EJ51x11 but I can be 5Ix11 too. It was set in the 3rd...

    So, Running those exhaust pipes and Velocity Stacks, instead of going higher in jets it's best to go down? I'll go over the carbs en exhaust again to check for leaks

    Fresh bobber build, need carb help

    Thanks! I must say I haven't changed the throtle shaft valves yet. It might be a good idea to do that as the carbs where not used for at least 8 years.

    Fresh bobber build, need carb help

    Hi all, my build is finally coming together. I just fired her up and rode some 10 miles or so. It pops a little from RH side when iddling and at deceleration. Reving goes ok without popping. I must say I never rode an XS before so no clue what to expect. I have read the carb manual but I must...

    First Build ever, another chopper/bobber

    Thanks for the reply's :) I really like the result of the exhaust. It took some time and some trial and error to make them but i'm pretty happy now. There is still one thing i'm not sure about. Where do i place the footpegs. I'm breaking my head over it now. I'd love to stay with mid controlls...
