    For Sale - 1979 XS650 / 750 Custom one of a kind

    Yes, it was a "SWAG"....SPECIAL WILD ASS GUESS because it didn't actually weigh each piece. Hell, just removing the stock battery and replacing it with a Shorai saved at least 5 pounds. The Shorai battery weighs just under 2 pounds but has 220 CCA (cold cranking amps). The stock handlebars...

    Like I said earlier, I DO have a head. It is complete with valves and springs but is plenty dirty but looks to be otherwise useable. I had purchased a complete engine about a year ago just to get the transmission so I have a left over top end. I'll take $75 for it!

    Hey EPT, I'd take $150 for the cylinders and pistons plus freight. Very honestly, they really do have only about 3500 miles on them!

    Carb jetting

    VM34 question. Could anyone give me a head start on tuning this brand new pair of VM34 round slides? I purchased them brand new from Niche Cycle Supply and they are SUPPOSED to be "PRETUNED" for XS650's. I got the bike running but it seems excessively rich and the venturie looks like it...

    1970 XS650 fix for stripped threads of carborator bowl

    Don't laugh! JB WELD the hole carefully after cleaning it thoroughly with B12 or some other carburetor spray. Be sure you mix it properly. Work it into the hole with a toothpick then smooth off he excess. Let it cure for at least 24 hours. Use your float bowl as a guide and CAREFULLY drill...

    Any experience with this 2 into 1 exhaust? Thoughts...?

    I'm a bit confused. Are these pipes the ones from Mike's XS? I like the 2 into 1 look and I also like the reverse cone muffler. Please advise....
