    RD400 kickstart - will it fit?

    Any chance that you could try to switch those around to check if the splines are the same? /Mads

    RD400 kickstart - will it fit?

    I'm trying to find a SR500 kickstarter to clear rearsets on my cafe build, but they never seem to come up for sale. While searching for it I found the kickstarter for the RD400/RD250 which seams to have the right shape to clear the rearsets. Does any of you know if the splines will fit the XS650...

    chain and sprocket question

    By the way..... the smallest rearsprocket I could find for my rear hub is 38 teeth. Thats not really smal enough but I'm going to use an 18 front and Mikes 5th gear which will bring me back to the original starting point... well thats just what you have to deal with when mixing parts.

    chain and sprocket question

    I think CDNTX650 is right. I'm going to use a KZ650B rear hub for my build. That is using a 630 chain as well. But looking around JT-sprockets website I found a rear sprocket for some newer Kawa which is 530 and will bolt straight on. Try your luck... I think that is the better way to go. :)

    1st gear problem

    @inxs That's some ride on a 30 year old bike... I think I'm gonna wait until I have ridden it a bit more and sorted all the little things out. I have been to Roskilde festival about 10 times, but not in the last couple of years. Are you going for this years festival? @pumps Thanks. It's...

    1st gear problem

    Well it's only 810 km to Gernsheim, but my German is very bad, to say the least :cussing: I just spent the evening making sure the bike is ready for inspection. I had to fit a chainguard from an old Honda because that was all I had. A few weeks ago I sprayed the tank and side covers real...

    1st gear problem

    At last.... SUCCES!!!! :D I got half an engine from a local guy and swapped first and fourth gear, all the shift forks and drum for less worn parts. I just got back from a short test run. :bike: Hope to have the thing inspected and plated on friday :wink2: /Mads

    1st gear problem

    The good thing about all of this is that I get some wrenching done. 1 hour 50 minutes from complete bike to gears in hand. :rock: The bad thing is that the new shift fork i but in is exactly as worn as the old one now and i only ran the bike a couple of times in 1st gear. So I need to...

    1st gear problem

    Hi XLalan It would seem that we have the same problem. Like you I have concluded that the gears must be undercut to solve the problem. Actualy I'm going to start diassembly tonight. What kind of bits did you use for the dremel? Anyone else have any thougts on what tools to use for cutting...

    1st gear problem

    So last night I finally got the bike all back together. The exhaust from Mikes sound great and the engine is running fine with freshly set valves an all.:thumbsup: The first couple of minutes of the testride went fine, but the third time I used 1st gear the problem returned.:yikes: :wtf...

    1st gear problem

    Well... I wasn't quite sure what was wrong, so I took the day of and brought the open engine to a shop nearby that actually specializes in XS650's. (www.xs650danmark.dk) They have a huge stock of parts and say that they know what they are talking about. They also sell parts from Mikes. The...

    1st gear problem

    I spend the last week trying to figure out if I should wait untill winter to get this thing running. I also have a running honda CB650. Well... I just can't leave it there, so tonight I pulled the engine and split the cases. The 1st and 4th gear look a bit worn and maybe also the shift fork...

    1st gear problem

    So tonight I had the side cover and clutch of the engine. Unfortunatly I didn't find much wrong in there. The only thing I could find was the smal bolt that holds the star-shaped plate on was i bit loose. I really hoped that was enough to cause the problem so I assembled everything and poured...
