Let me know if you are going to order.......

Mike's told me 3 weeks ago it would be avalable in 6 weeks.

Oh really? Hmm.. Mikes emailed me today and said "early next year"

Maybe ill wait alittle longer and see. Ill keep that website as my 2nd option. Its about $67 USD from them.

Thanks for the website!

Another possibility is getting a brethren XS'er in Canada to order one for you from 650direct and then mail it to you.

I found 2 of the clutch worms (the lever/screw part) here:

Found 7 of them here:

Found the nylon worm body here:

Looks like they have 23 of them....for 55.96 each. That would be ok for the entire kit, but it appears to be for the lever only.

The speedandsport price is half that.
Also found a complete RD350 clutch actuator on eBay. I *think* the worm body (only) works on ours.

The speedport price is 112 and the housing is 67. Don't think its cheaper

??? - Sounds like somebody's pulling a fast one. Maybe web-hit demand or zone based pricing...???
It originally came up as $26 for me.

I went to the parts list, but did not put it in the basket.

 

[TwoManyXS1Bs]

And that jackssmallengines site showed $6.93 for the worm body ......???

 

[xs650dreamer]

I have a good used one if anyone needs it

 

[TwoManyXS1Bs]

Sure 'nuff, that price shot up to $56.
Then there's that jackssmallengines, wonder if it's for real?
And, another one just showed up on eBay.

Am I loosing my mind???

Me thinks Jacks just takes orders......they claim to have parts that everyone else says Yamaha doesn't make anymore.

Hey JT---I just sent you a PM. tim

 

[rahndo]

Mike's now has the complete kit in stock.

 

[TwoManyXS1Bs]

Thanx, rahndo.

jakessmallengines is not for real, they just have some database of every Yamaha part number since christ lost his sandals but don't actually have "anything".
