I have one. Pm me

Hello all! I recently picked up a new R Nine T, and have decided it’s time to let go of my XS and all the parts I’ve accumulated. I’m not sure what’s valuable and what isn’t, so everything listed is obo. Shoot me an offer, let’s work out a deal! I’ll apologize in advance for any formatting...

I have a fender off of an 81 that's been unmolested and in good shape. Not sure if it would fit your 79 or not. Has a bit of sharpie on it from po, should come right off with some cleaner

Contemplated the existence of life and paint schemes.

Freeway speeds won't be necessary for me. However, you guys will probably be happy to hear that due to funding issues I'll probably end up with the original carbs. My "oh it'll never break down because it's German" airhead took a turn for the worse this past weekend. I'll probably end up...

Now when people are talking a plug chop, what are they referring to? Kind of new to all of this.. Is it to check plug condition after a beat run or something?

You're not the only one turned on, Seraph

It'll be an occasionally ridden bike. I have an airhead that's my daily rider. I'd like stacks because I like how they look, and if I'm unlucky and they suck in one of the pigeon sized mosquitos we have in Wisconsin it'll just be another reason to rebuild my motor. I'm a glass half full...

I've heard flat slides are a pita to tune, but I was worried that I'd be stuck with a doughy throttle if I went with the round slides. Are there any obvious issues with running velocity stacks on the vm series? Also, possibly a stupid question, but side draft? Are they even a feesible option...

Well guys and gals, it's nearing time for me to finally cobble my xs project together. Last year my stock carbs did real well for me, but they've been sitting in my garage all winter and I'm honestly not in the mood to rebuild them. All the nightmares I've heard of ripping those things apart...

I'm swapping over from rear drum to rear disc but my setup didn't come with an axle. I'm assuming the axle off my 81 rear drum setup is the same overall length and diameter, but I'm unsure about spacers. I tried to find any variances while looking on parts diagrams from Babbitt's Yamaha parts...

Shipped? Probably close to the 600 dollar mark. USPS shipping ain't what it used to be

Head to a machine shop. If the work is slow they'd probably turn one down for you for about 50 bucks. Save them the time and get all the measurements you need and I'd suggest bringing the original rear axle in with you. I'm sure you could probably find bikes with a similar rear axle size by...

Okay, so I'm not personally selling one. But I stumbled across a pretty cool site a while back but wanted to wait until I experienced the company first hand before I posted anything. Ordered some things, then kind of forgot about them. They sell some odd ball parts, such as a tach cable...

Legality probably has a lot to do with location. I live in Harley country and you'd be surprised by what some of the bikes around here get away with. Personally I'd just throw em on and see if you get a ticket for them, but I'm a punk kid so..

Unfortunately no.. I'll probably be using mine unless I actually make the jump to some round slides

Side covers off of 77. Red and gold. 1 tab broken on each, still usable $15 Front fender. Chrome in good shape, sharpie marks on it but unmolested besides that $50 Head pipes and mufflers. Custom ish setup off an 81. Heat wrapped but free of cracks $150 Rear drum mag. Good shape, brand...

He sure does doesn't he..

Still have these?

Yeah I can assume that'd go over like a fart in a space suit.. we use the black oxide button heads at work but the things rust at the slightest sign of moisture. However I know those suckers hold.
