My clutch action is stiff enough to hurt! This is a '75 with a stock rebuilt engine. The clutch plates, springs and right hand mechanisms looked good and no upgrades or mods were done on that side before we buttoned it down. It a one-piece push rod, I 'think' the bearing is in there on the...

I just got a pair of these stainless steel exhaust tips with an inlet size of 1.5" to go on my straight stock headers. http://www.discountexhaustsystems.com/shop/?Ntt=G27500415&N=0&events=search These will NOT slip on easily, and the next size up (2.25") is too big. They have a built in clamp...

Putting the simplified wiring together on my '75 (points, PMA, no battery). The ground (lead) wire off the condenser should connect to the engine mount? frame? thanx

We are starting a rebuild on an XSB and today tore the top end apart. So far so good. Next question is whether we need to split the cases. First thing to cause suspicion is the kick start cavity. I attached an image. What is that hole in the back there (middle arrow)?? Should we worry that...

My son and I started a softtail bobber project a couple of months ago, with a 75-B parts bike I acquired some years ago. Pics are found in the album http://www.xs650.com/media/albums/1429/ We have modified the frame - VisualImpact Brat kit, grinding off excess metal, etc. Got a La Rosa seat and...
