    What have you done to your XS today?

    Hi everyone, after many years of letting my 1972 collecting dust, it's now the time to finish it and bring the old lady back on the road. Carbs, front brake and some clutch adjustments and she'll be ready. So today, removing and disassembling the carbs, I already rebuilt them in the past but...

    Any BigBore/Rephase kits for 1972 306 engines?

    Smallest proper battery?

    http://www.ballisticparts.com/ Don't know if it's small enough for you but these batteries can replace a stock unit, they are small, light and have a lot of power. The 8 cell should work fine, they are lithium-ion batteries, I think they have a 4 cell version too.

    Titling questions on build

    In Quebec, if your frame is from a BMW, the title will say BMW no matters which engine is in it. I think it must be the same thing as a car but I don't what are the rules in your area.

    Here's my new toy...

    Hi guys, it's been some time since the last time I came here. I have to admit that I didn't finish my XS2 this summer.

    Any snowmobiler's here?

    Here, we prefer bigger snowmobiles like Skandic (made by Bombardier or BRP). My father-in-law just bought one, a 2012 Skandic SWT with the 600 H.O. E-Tec 2 stroke engine. This thing has a 24" wide track under it and compared to the previous model, it drives way better. The first time I drove...
