Does any1 know how the mercury was used in the felt hat indusrty? im as bloody mad as a hetter! but mad with a sync set of carbs!!! i put a pair of stock xs 135 jets between the 2 sizes of clear tubing & worked a treat. the right side carb (kickstart side) i found to be far more adjustable...

Youre the man Brian! a pictures worth a thousand words as they say. ive got a ton of xs650 carbs laying around, think any of hem would have suitable jets? cheers pal

gday jdizon, mate would u snap some pix of your rig, im not sure what the brass bits are or how u used those along with the plastic plugs. Seeing as you have a working setup itd help me a lot. cheers

ok..well the tube size im using is a perfect snug fit to the barb, sooo, ill go with auto trans fluid instead of thin injector cleaner...bang a jet down each end close to the barbs to rescrict air flow & see what happens??? lesser vacuum & heavier oil grade. will report back.

fuel injector cleaner is what i used and yes it was very thin...my first attempt was some 'small engine' oil i had which was red but so thick it didnt settle it the tube and couldnt get rid of air pockets.

racerdave, gday! no thats the step i missed, i did not use a dampener...dont quite get that bit. Brian902 says hes used spare jets but im not seeing how they dont just fall to the bottom of the clear tubing and therefor becoming useless?? i really want to sync these things n go for a ride...

hello all so as the title says i had a loss today but also a big win in firing my bike up. i put together a manometer copy of pic below, im running brand new vm34s from 650central & think syncing is a must. the 34s i have have the vacuum barbs on the body of the carb not on the ruber manifolds...

good one andy! that manual is a must & will be ur best friend if it helps u works it out. good luck! cheers

The reason i want to engage a gear ANY gear is so i can tighten up the retaining nut of the sparx PMA i have installed....cannot run bike with loose... i was going to get it in gear, have sum1 sit on it with brake on & tighten that sucker up...im stuck for another way to lock up the engine. cheers

Gday andy, i am battling the same issue right now, had gear selection, now nothing.ive found there is a round chrome cover on the left hand case with a nut & screw within the nut...this must be adjusted correctly for clutch 2 operate well. Generally speaking the screw should be flush with the...

Gday all, so here a few pix of the raked 650 i just purchased. done small things like made a new seat, re positioned indicators, new vm carbs, installed sparx pma, flashy (maybe pointless) finned oil filter, bobbed rear gaurd & full rewire. So, all thats good & well...i WAS able to select all...

Gday all, this is a 310cca bsealed battery. i believe 650s stocks are 200cca???? Anybody think of a reason such an increase could cause problems? running stock with pamco & sparx pma cheers...

RIGHTO! so i found a spare hour yesterday, had a good look at both shafts & found the problem..number 2 gear on the output shaft had a filthy burr on the turning surface which of course didn't do much to allow it to spin. VERY finely filed it off & inspected the the shaft itself, re resembled &...

oops sorry i may have only told half the story peanut.. i got this entire bike in a million pieces! looking at those images id say ive got the actual shafts set up correctly. great images brian, thanks! one qeustion though...theres 'dots' drilled or machined in a couple of the gears (on the...

i thought about that so what ive done is removed the drum/shifting workings & simply sat the shafts inplace but the same problem im still there. SO! going back to basics can you confirm i have the correct moving gears in the correct places. Here is the same picture with the measurements & teeth...

hi all, thanks for the help & suggestions. umm, ive been tinkering tonight & have reset the position of the drum now i have movement through all four gears but have no neutral. that video was great thanks penut, i tried holding the imput shaft & turning the output just as you did but no...
