hey Pukey - the seat the Deus bike is using is a Nitroheads seat for a SR400/500 - I've got the Motolanna copy its a pretty good, vinyl though, as Oak said, shorter, but fits well with a few mods. I saw that bike in the flesh in the Deus showroom last year, a fine low and muscly look but they...

Tom from Darlington, Sydney NSW - got a 78 XS with a Xs1100 front end, solid alloy wheels and a work-in-progress as always.

Looks like the XS1100 is the ticket - thanks XSLeo - now to find something a little more subtle that will fit.

thanks guys, hmm that explains a lot - its obviously not a stock front end - pic of the yoke attached. The 2nd yoke I have is a XS650 part for sure - large holes for the risers are built in. I'm probably the 4th/5th owner so who knows what they've done.

Hi guys, I've got a 78 XS650 and trying to replace the top yoke with integrated risers (originally had clubmans) for something a little cleaner to go with my clip-ons - the yoke I got from the wreckers doesn't fit though - was there a difference between the specials/standards? or has the guy...

My 78' has an original fuel tank with a single petcock with 2 hoses - the RHS hose is the fuel hose - what is the 2nd hose on the left? And what should it connect to? I've been through my Haynes (helpful but not comprehensive) and cant find any mention of the 2nd hose and where it should...

Yeah I'd asked all the questions of the PO and taken it all with a grain of salt - but the engines been rebuilt (seen receipts) and it was in great shape other wise for a great price - so hard to refuse even it wasnt running. I'm looking for tech advice as I'm new to the custom game - I've...

Hi guys, I've picked myself up a 78 XS650 as a half-finished project, dual front disk brakes, solid alloy wheels - otherwise pretty stock. I've had a fair few bikes but this ones the first thats older than me - looking for something simpler and a world away from the other Japanese 4's I've...
