On my xs650, every now and then when I downshift quickly from say 4th to 1st gear coming to a full stop or a sharp turn. Say if I'm driving 40mph+ then slowing down quick downshifting. Of course I hold the clutch in when I shift all the way down, but the bike will stall. It won't stall when I...

Many people I see use clear tubing on the fuel tanks petcock to carburetor. Or on their fuel tank gauge sights. Mine had clear rubber tubing but has turned yellowish over time since it's been on their from the previous owner of my xs650. I just replaced it today with Clear Braided Vinyl...

Hey all, so my ignition coil has gone bad/faulty on my 79 XS650 recently. I've gone to check out the part number, and it has part # 12V CM12-08 908. After doing some research I find out that this ignition coil I have on my motorcycle is from a 78-80' XS1100 or 81' XJ650 I believe. And this one...

Hey all, I'm new here and I just got a 79' XS650 bobber. I couldn't be more happy with it. It's my official first motorcycle ever, even though I've had my M1 motorcycle license for over 5+ years haha. But I rode sports bikes in the past awhile back. This is my starter and learner bike. Well I...
