lol....I didn't even notice that. I had a CB650 before this and just have a habit of typing CB I guess. Sorry

Just wanted to post up some pictures of my XS650. It has a mild cafe treatment done to her. Not real sure of my complete plans yet. I would love to do a full Cafe but I need to be able to carry my wife of kids every now and then :) Since I have had it I just did some adjusting on the carbs...

I took the carbs off today and pulled all the jets and gave it all a good cleaning. I reinstalled the carbs and she runs great again with no problems. I guess she had just picked up some dirt or something that clogged a jet or passage way. Anyways she is running great again. Thanks for the help :)

It was already done when I bought it but it was running great with no popping at all ever since I bought it and I ride it daily. Thats why I say it is jetted right. *UPDATE* I decided to try something......... I started the bike and let it idle. While it was idleing I sprayed carb cleaner in...

Plugs look to be on the lean side. It seems better with the choke on but only a little. Again, it was fine yesterday and then today this

Ok its a 80 XS650 with pods and exhaust. It is jetted right and does not have the cheap pods on it. Now for my problem...... It has been running great and strong through the whole rpm range. I rode yesterday with no problems. Today I fired it up and it seemed ok except it was popping out one...

Looking good!

Does this look like one that will fit? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Yamaha-XS650-seat-NEW-leather-cafe-bubble-seat-xs1-/150716199077?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&vxp=mtr&hash=item231762b0a5 The bottom of it doesn't look that much different than mine to me. Here is a couple pictures of mine I...

Cool. Thanks!

OK What is the difference between the 2? Is it just a small modification to make it work?

Thanks but I am wanting a cafe seat and I found one I want but I'm not sure it will fit since it is for an earlier model.

Ok I have figured out that I have an 1980 XS650 Special II. From reading on here that explains my spoked wheels and hinged seat. So my question is about the seat. What seats will fit? Since it is still a hinged seat like the earlier standards will an earlier seat fit?

Thats the first thing I checked and I think I have set right.

Thats what I was assuming but I wanted to see if anybody else had this problem before. Guess I will change the oil this week and see what happens. Thanks

I recently got my XS650 and it is in great shape. I have not changed the oil yet because he said he had just changed it and when I check it the oil looks brand new. I'm wondering if the wrong oil could be causing the problem I'm having though........ When I first crank the bike the clutch will...

Thanks! I pulled the filters and now it runs great. I hit 100 no problem :) Now I just need to order some new pods

Ok I think I know the problem. I have been going through checking things and it has all been checking out. Well I pulled the carb bowl and checked the mains.....they are stock 132.5 Thats the problem...when I am wide open it just isn't getting enough fuel. I just assumed that since it runs so...

Here is a picture of her. It's just one I snapped with my phone today before putting her back up. I know the color combo is not for everybody but thats how I bought it

Will do Thanks :)

Thanks for the help guys. I'm going to check the float levels tomorrow because that's really how it feels....like it just needs more fuel. I plan on switching the rear sprocket to a 30 probably. Ill post up some pictures as soon as I can. Thanks again!
