THE ROLLING BONES
XS650 Enthusiast
All the videos I have seen on carburetors all have a vacuum on the intake manifold and mine doesn't! I have a 1977 xs650 and an owners manual but it doesn't show where all the fuel lines go! When I got the bike all the lines and the carb were of the motor! Could someone explain to where and what lines I need and where they go starting from the petcock! thanks! If you could tell me what wires are needed just to get the bike started, that would help also! I just want to start the bike not ride. Picture the motor of the frame! Just using the kick start. I adjusted my cam chain,valves and timing. I set the valves to the specs that were in the manual(intake .05mm-exhaust .15mm ) Should I keep it to spec or change the gap since the bike is 36 years old! I gaped the left side intake first then checked the timing and then the gap (adjusted)checked the timing again and checked the gap and BADABING! then moved to the left exhaust and then the same thing on the right! Timing is set! Now I want to set the carbs So any help on how to wire for a quick start nothing to fancy with onlt the kick start would be great!
