First off let me say that this is a great forum. I cannot tell you how many times I have found exactly the answer I was looking for on here. Read the how to for splitting the crankcase and it was very helpful in locating all the bolts especially the ones hidden on the bottom of the case. To my...

Fourth gear chatters...how hard to replace...?? split case or replace from clutch side ?? . replace all gears?? thanks

So first things first. I'm new to carburetors. I pulled the float bowls they're clean, but when I throttle to start the bike the floats, I think, they don't open with the butterfly valve. I can push them into the float bowl and they drop down at about the same speed more or less. Do they need...

Okay so about a week ago I bought my first yamaha... a xs360, I've had a few other bikes and am relatively familiar with the process of fixing them and within a week or two i'll be riding down the road. However, this story's a bit different. I can't get it to pop at all with the kick starter...

A guy who lives near me has an '81 XS400 Special II sitting in his barn. I don't think it's been used in a decade. It has a little over 5,000 original miles. A little surface rust is coming through the tank on the outside. The fork seals and tires are rotted out. Everything else is in decent...

I took the cover off and oil came running out. Still has a constant drip. I take it there is a seal back there? This oil would be coming from the crankcase? Thanks, Gareth Williams

so I know this isn't xs11.com but I've had a lot better input on here so I'm hoping for some luck. I bought this bike (79' xs1100 standard) and the guy I got it off really was doing some weird stuff with the wiring , I know it turns over and runs just fine by jumping it from the solenoid. I...
