    XS650 clutch

    Thank you all for all your help, I have figured out the issue with the help of a vintage motorcycle mechanic friend I know. The issue has been solved and I'm happy to say she is back on the road. Turns out that some of the plates had gotten dry and where sticking together even when the...

    XS650 clutch

    Could you please clarify. The way I have assembled it is the first shaft has a milled narrowed end and none milled end. The milled end goes into the worm screw assembly and the none milled end is what contacts the center ball ( In theory, I can't confirm this as I can't see.) I have uploaded...

Then I did it again...

    Permanent Magnet Alternator

    Hello To anyone read this, I recently bought a A PMS kit from Mike's XS for my bone stock 1978 SX650 because I'm very sure the old original charging system just isn't up to the task anymore. My kit didn't come with any instruction but I was able to look around and with the right puller, change...
