Hi Nick Unfortunately it is now sold. It went about a year ago via eBay as I had no luck selling it on here at the time. Your Xs is looking great! Have you had your engine apart at all? Reason I ask is to find out if you can recommend anyone local ish who’s confident with these bikes...

Work in progress… Before & After shots I had saved after completing the single seat fab. New battlax, fork brace to steady the front end after I removed the 2nd brake disc rotor set up -fully serviced caliper, Hel braided line with Ducati monster brembo master cylinder -very satisfied with this...

Now sold

That’s a good alternative. Thanks for chiming in bud.

Yeah I’m a pom. I have family in Aus, been there a few times, travelled around a bit. Top man Skull, thanks for your prompt assistance mate. Have a good evening 👍

I believe that’s the same link I’ve just sent you. Passing ships in the night mate. Hardly surprising when you’re 10 hours ahead! Btw I am in the uk 👍

Sorry, missed the link… https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/235158787849?mkevt=1&mkcid=1&mkrid=710-53481-19255-0&campid=5338722076&customid=&toolid=10050

Thanks mate. I’ll bear that in mind closer to the end. However I have now found this genuine cover labelled for a xs1b/tx750. It’s a bit pricey so I may message the seller for sale providing I can get a guaranteed fit…

Hey Beags Would you be interested In shipping to the UK? ..jumping the gun abit assuming you still have some of these Hub covers left.. I expect shipping won’t be cheap but I’ll probably pay it anyway.

I’ve requested measurements and he’s sent me these lousy pictures 😒

Said item…

Hi Skull, Can you confirm that only the screw threaded metal hub cover will only fit those particular years..? I’m currently hanging by a thread on eBay for one to fit my ‘77. I may have to stop bidding as it’s a fraction smaller and won’t fit right -like the plastic one does..

I’ve just found an article from Dogbunny 🫣 Yamaha headlight wire around (reserve lighting unit and idiot light)

Thanks for your help! It seems it is meant to be there then if you’ve also used a jumper wire; Could you possibly enlighten me on what the reserve lighting device is for?

Hi guys, probably a stupid question but here goes anyway.. I was investigating the loom on my ‘77D to update my regulator & rectifier and I had noticed one of the 3 connector blocks under my seat has just one single green wire looped around itself. I have checked diagrams but I struggle with...

Ok, I’ll check it out thanks! I like that you have the Yamaha logo engraved into the top there… was that request carried out by Fastec?

Ok, I’ll check it out thanks!

Cheers for the heads up! Those guys are literally round the corner from me. I’m sure they’re great items however I cannot justify that price tag. I would prefer a brace a little more in keeping with the age of my bike too.

Well shipping costs from mikes xs to the UK seem a bit steep. $82 to send the loopy brace. Thought I’d just post this Ad out here if anyone can help me acquire one at a cheaper rate then that would just be great! Cheers

Thanks @articXS as I am struggling to find any suitable upgrade of replacement discs without going down the route of your set up and adding spacers etc for a hefty price tag I am happy to try and have my 298mm dual disc(s) machined from 7mm to around 5mm with the faces drilled. My main concern...
