Finally with everything running smooth and a real camera. Memorial Day weekend I went and rode around my old neighborhood. First time I'd been back there in 10 years https://youtube.com/@SteelandBone

Finished reinforcing my rear fender and mounting my tail light on the sissy bar. Also went for my first night ride. Finally ticked over 200 miles since me rebuild. Good start to memorial day weekend.

While I wait for my new rear fender from led sled I figured I'd weld, reinforce and clean up my old one. You guys helped my noob aft end realize it is actually a front fender that's had some extra cable hooks tacked on it. When I get my new one who wants this?

Thanks guys I think your right. I might try to save this one for now. Needs to be stripped down and cleaned and welded up right

So last thing I need to do is get a new rear fender. My old one has literally been held in place with zip ties and it's really thin, cracked all over, and rusting away. My rear tire is a Bridgestone 120/90-16M/C 63P TW40A (Trail wing 40) So a 24-25" fender is perfect. I have no idea where...

@Oldfartaussie let us know how this goes I'm having the same issue and I've squeezed the heck out of that clip the same way and still it won't hold

I got a HHB top mount but because my frame is homebrew I hade to make and weld on a mount for my HHB mount haha Came out not too shabby. Time for paint

Sorry my camera is crap haha I'm looking into an insta360 one rs

First ride to work and first time it's putted along with no issues. Hazzah!

Does anyone have that excel? Took mine to 5th and am finding the same situation. Gonna go through the list

know you're in the midst of an engine rebuild but I believe there was something about wiring. Just finished mine and it's running well. My wiring diagram.

I had the same issues with my blue mikes xs e advance ignition https://www.xs650.com/threads/83-xs650-startup-frustrations-advice-appreciated.63919/post-789586 I also had to put extra washers on the advance rod to remove the side play. The rotor on the right side that replaces the mechanical...

Are they magnetic?

Yeah sorry for throwing in that random bit. But thank you for the assistance as always gents!

So a wonderful gentleman where I work named Ulysses helped me out and TIG welded over that gap for me. Everything is running beautifully now. Also does anyone know what size thread and count this may be. M12? Wanna put in a brass "plug"

Any #4 starter gears with the clip

Gave Mike's my honest feedback. I'm working to have my own part machined at my job or welded over. I don't have my own machine that can tig aluminum.

That'll be the next solution. I only have a flux core welder right now. I think the rotor is stainless. Doesn't feel like aluminum. I'll have to try to magnet test it

holy moly those carbs look great!

Thought I'd try to 3d print a solution. Wonder how it will hold up
