Ah, your carbs are slightly different to the one my XS2- mine only has a plunger on the LHS!

My LHS carb is the same -i suspect choke plunger according to what i have read on here.

What ignition system have you got. My XS2 has an "elextrec" kit which states you must use resister plugs AND caps!

Adamc- Could be educational to some, but i would regard it as a distraction.

The bike has always run rich since i bought it (13 months ago). i have tried slight adjustments of mixture screw with little effect. It does have single choke(LH carb) with a crossover tube. I don`t know what condition the plunger rubber is like- Are they still available? No sign of flooding...

Not sure, i will investigate! Has anyone a photo of the relay and where it is located (if fitted to XS2)

Niggling issues have developed- Since fixing the previous problem- Bike will kickstart from cold -first kick-every time! Will not kickstart when engine is warm! Will fire on starter hot or cold ok (usually) Until today when after a run it displayed symptoms of "weak battery" (but the battery...

I seem to recall reading yrs ago that US models of most Makes/models ( not just Yamaha ) had lower gearing(sprocket wise) than European bikes. Something to do with US preference for acceleration and "about town riding", rather than European preference for Motorway/MPG riding. I might of...

I have loads of photo`s on an old laptop which i have not used for maybe 5-6yrs-i can`t open it as i cannot recall the password! I would love to be able to download those photos. It`s a "Toshiba satellite pro"- running "Windows 8 pro"- any easy fix for this situation? I don`t have original...

Cycleranger- you may have hit the nail on the proverbial head. I disabled "adblocker" and the fan has not started since! Thankyou

Just recently whenever i go onto Ebay website(UK) the laptop fan starts up within a few seconds! As soon as i switch to a different website the fan switches off. No other website causes the fan to run. What have Ebay done to their website to trigger this? anyone know? Edit - Just checked- Ebay...

Had a look through the posts but can`t find any info on replacing diaphragm (XS2) -has anyone had any luck with any of the replacement ones on Ebay? My LHS carb slide drops a lot quicker than the RHS ( no obvious holes and i tried rubber grease on it -no change)
