    What size are the nuts that bolt the muffler to the frame?

    I know, I can just search it up but I've been looking all over for the answer but to no avail. Either nobody has had the same question, or its ignorance on my part. For an 81 XS400

    How do I figure out what jets to put in my carb?

    Fairly certain I read somewhere in this forum that if you get new air filter or exhaust then you have to put different jets in your carb. How exactly do I know what jets to put in?

    Indicator/neutral/oil pressure lights stopped working

    I switched over to LED turn signals (also mounted them in the stock turn signal housing).

    Alright I will keep this in mind, maybe I will take the exhaust off for now and let it air out a bit. I replaced both plugs just to be safe and now she runs like a dream

    Bike got more responsive/powerful out of nowhere

    Alright ill give it a try probably tomorrow. Now that I think of it, that might have been what was happening. After I saw the puff of smoke I checked at the end of the muffler and it was wet with a lot of fuel. Probably just excess fuel caused the smoke
