XS650 Addict
hi all, I was was just reading through the Minton mods and in the section about forks it says the following -
At this point, you have to decide whether you are going to install air caps. If not, purchase a pair of 1976 Yamaha IT400 fork seals and install them in the fork legs. If you are going for the air-fork option, install 1976 Yamaha YZ250 fork seals. These seals have less friction than any seals we’ve used. Yes, we know. The XS650 has 35mm fork tubes and the recommended seals are designed for 36mm tubes-but they work.
has anyone tried this? I tried searching but came up with nought.
