Place out of Kitchener, Ontario Canada http://www.bdesigns.ca/Services.htm Website is pretty good. af226

Nice tx. I will try the 60-80 at a lower pressure.

Stainless Steel looks like a nice finish but the media is $400 for 20kg:(

Thanks for the heads up. I am looking to blast most of the old motor and have seen online the "Satin" finish not and nice as vapor but still much better that 45 yr old dirt and grime. I don't really want a polished finish. just cleaner and Aluminum finish. Do you think the 60-80 grit would...

https://www.grainger.ca/en/product/GLASS-BEADS%2C50LB-%2C170-325-MESH%2CNO-13/p/AGCGLB17032550 This looks like the same product?? Would this run in a siphon feed blast cabinet? My cabinet: https://www.princessauto.com/en/floor-model-abrasive-blasting-cabinet/product/PA0008046492 Is this only...

I suspect that I may have this: https://www.princessauto.com/en/50-lb-greengrit-crushed-glass-blasting-abrasive/product/PA0008223794 Says 20-30 grit which is way to aggressive!

I have a Pricessauto/Harbor freight siphon style blasting cabinet. I have glass media in their right now. I tried cleaning one of the old valve covers and the media chewed it pretty hard. I do not know the grit of the current media as it was given to me by a friend in a generic bucket. I have...

Thanks gggGary. I was fairly sure but better to be certain before parting with $$$

In keeping with my belief to ask here before spending money..... I have a option to get a 1978 engine for a very good deal. Does the majority of the bits and pieces swap around on my 1974? My intent is when I tear down the original and use both to build up a runner. Full knowing that I will...

Carb - Has anyone used these rebuild kits? I have a 74 TX650. Just want to make sure that I am buying the right kits for the carbs on the bike. A few things have been from different year bikes thus far:) https://yamahaxs650.com/product/carb-rebuild-kit-3/ I need new rubber intake rubber front...

Right On, thanks 5 T

So I have to buy a battery as my 74 TX650 came with out one. A YTX14AHL-BS(AGM) and YB14L-A2(Lead Acid) are both 12N14 style batteries and compatible correct? For the love of God every site I check quotes a different style and fitment.:) Thanks for the help af226

I have a set of 79 XS650 Special side covers that I bought locally for $50 Cdn. I am looking to trade for a set of 74-79 Standard covers that will fit my 74. If interested in either a trade or to buy just PM. Covers are solid condition. Knob is missing on retainer pin for the right side. I will...

Well there you go. It was a 79 Special. Live and learn. Thank you for the info gggGary. Cheers

Well crap I did it again. bought some decent "local" parts and they do not fit. I wonder when I will learn:) Bought a set of 79 side covers and tada they don't fit my 74. I have trolled this site a fair bit to try and determine what would fit but no luck so far. Does anyone know what years fit...

I like the front fender. Looks cool. Definitely not stock:)

Looking to buy a standard tank for my 74 TX650. It has a Special on it now that is pretty much ready for the metal recycling bin. Inside is very rough. I live in Kingston Ontario but I have a friend in Oswego NY so maybe the US shipping would not kill the deal:) Thanks af226 Brad

Yup, not original tank. I am looking for a 4 gal tank as the 3 gal special is in rough shape inside and out. But time will tell what happens.
