Looking for a 277 crank in great shape. Anyone sitting on one?

Looking for one of these! If you happen to have a spare, please send me a message with your price shipped to 94118. Thanks!

Bought this engine from a fellow forum member several months back thinking I'd put it in a framer. My plans have changed, my storage solution and workshop space isn't an option anymore, so I need to downsize. I have not run it, as it's still in the crate from when I purchased. Complete, with...

Hi all, Building another engine just for fun or possibly to sell ... already have a never-installed Hugh's crank, looking for a cam now. The engine will be running a 700cc JE 9.5:1 kit from Hoos, so it could take a bit of a hotter cam. Anyhow - please let me know what you have!

Check, I’m an idiot! Just installed 750 kit, Shell #1 regrind, etc. Did all the prework to degree the cam after installation. Adjusted cam chain tensioner correctly, set up zero lash on all 4 valves, etc. After checking this 3 times with the dial plunger 3 different places on the valve spring...

MODS PLEASE CLOSE. COMBINING THREADS.

Hi all - Is there anyone who makes a plug to block off the hole that's left in the clutch cover after removing the kickstarter shaft? I'm sure I could get something machined locally, but what a pain that might turn out to be. Hoping for an easy solution, but that might not exist. So yes -...

MODS PLEASE CLOSE.

Hey all! Got another something-or-other in the works. Looking for a couple of specific parts, hoping this community has the goods: Single outlet breather box Good condition engine side covers, both sides, hopefully without pitting - prefer a later style clutch cover with the oil sightglass...

Sold locally for my full asking price. Thanks for all your help, helpful people. I'm sure I'll build another one someday! Way too much fun. Leaving this thread here for posterity. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Putting the feelers out there to see if anyone might be interested. I built this thing over the...

Hi, All - Looking for a good condition (read: little to nothing in terms of dents, and little to no internal rust) tank from a 1975 - here's a picture of what I'm looking for: Anyone who has perused my build thread knows I'm not one for period correctness, but I just love this...

I have done some searching about this with inconclusive results. Reading some stuff on this thread and elsewhere about how having the power on, but the bike not running, can fry one's Pamco and/or coil got me thinking about how I've got mine set up. The suggestion in that thread was to make...

This 1975 XS650 is gonna be a ... Brat? Tracker? What? Somehow, I have become a magnet for derelict motorcycles amongst my friend group. This isn't the worst problem to have, but there are several confounding factors: 1) Space - I live in San Francisco, which is a small town disguised as a...

SF, CA -- 34mm forks from a 75, full 1978 harness, exhaust, etc. EDIT: Last week! It's all going in the trash or on eBay if none of y'all want it... Electrical + chassis + engine stuff Full wiring harness from a '78 Standard. Some plugs and connectors replaced, but pretty much intact...

Hi, All - I'm in the process of gathering all the parts and hardware to swap a 2006 GSXR 750 fork and brakes onto my 1975 XS650, while converting to dual disc and using the stock front wheel. I know that this swap has been done, and re-hashed, and there's a lot of great information and a few...

I'm going to take the plunge and convert to a disc rear, so I need a clean front hub. I'm located in SF, CA so please feel free to PM me if you've got something locally or that you could ship. Happy to send a FedEx label for shipping if necessary. Thanks!!
