Hi Guys. I have stock Headers, 1.5" and ordering a set of Emgo Shorties that have both 1.5" and 1.75" ends. I am wondering what size clamp to use? I saw on the forum that the Harley clamps come recommended but I need to know what size to get. Like will a 1.5" clamp be too small as it needs to...

My throttle cable returns and doesn't stick but the revs stay high. From reading I suspect my carbs are not synced/balanced properly or the like? If I turn the bike off and start it again, the idle is normal again. Here is video of the issue.

I know its a bit of a long shot but I’m hoping someone might have a decent used Mac exhaust for my 82 XS400, DOHC. I can’t afford to buy a new one at this time. I’m in Victoria, BC Canada. PM me with a ballpark price with shipping. Cheers!

Any tips on getting this out of here? I don't want to reef on it and 'brake it' (pun intended). Thx!

Greetings! I am going to be wiring up a rear LED integrated light system and want to make sure I have my ducks in line. I'm not sure what the additional Black/Ground wire is for. YELLOW = Brake BLUE = Running Light BLACK = Ground BROWN = Right Signal GREEN = Left Signal Additional BLACK = ...

Missing one of these on my tank and hoping someone may have a spare (Gold Version). Definitely doesn't have to be perfect, just usable. Thanks!

I am wondering what this part is called and how to check for deficiencies around it. It looks like it had sparked or got burnt (There was black around the lower left edge). Bike is currently not running and I don't know its history. All other wires from the Stator, etc are in good shape.

Hi Guys. I bought a set of NGK BP7ES from Mikes and they are too big (Threads wont fit the hole). I have an 82 DOHC. I am wondering what the substitute is /recommendations? Plugs by Greggy posted Jan 22, 2018 at 8:25 AM

Hi Guys, I got a little carried away when putting the piston back into the caliper (replaced seals) - its pretty much bottomed out now. Will it still have enough backspace to pump the bastard back up once I refill/bleed the lines? Cheers,

Update: FOUND THEM Gentlemen, Please help a brother out. I need the following two parts to finish off my Braking System. It is for a 82 Yamaha Maxim XS400. Condition doesn't really matter as long as it works/is functioning. Brake Lever: Brake Rod: Cheers, Greggy

Okay, so 1982 Maxim XS400 resto project. I was in the process of buying new rubber, these are the sizes I got: Front: 3.00 S19 Rear: 130/90/16 Does this mean I'm running a 19" rim front and a 16" rear? Is that normal or am I out to lunch here? Cheers, Greggy

Greetings from the latest XS400 Newb! So... I just scooped up an 82 XS400 project and am focusing on the front end first off (Single disc). I have pretty much everything I need except the front brake cable/line. I am at a loss for sizing. Would a 1100mm (43") cable work or what is the stock...
