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...

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...

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...

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...

Since I'm dropping my frame off at the welders tomorrow morning, I figured it'd be a good time to try and iron out some of my pre-build head scratchers. This is my first attempt at building a motorcycle, and I'm a bit of an idiot. So here goes nothing. I purchased a tank off this forum a...

Well, since I've been out in the garage all day huffing paint fumes I figured it's time to sit down and figure out some of the specifics. I'm converting to rear disc, and threw all brake balance cautions to the wind and have decided to use a master cylinder off one of my old bikes. Before I go...

Does anybody know how to remove the plastic turn screw for the trip reset? Haven't found much info on the subject.

Not even sure I want to do this. Selling off my rear disc conversion. Almost everything there to bolt on and go. 77 xs400 rear wheel, needs tire and fresh sprocket but brake rotor is in good shape and new wheel bearings have been installed. 77 rear caliper. Good shape, pads included but...

Sorry guys don't know how to delete posts apparently...

Rear wheel off an 81. 16" drum mag with brand new Avon road rider tire. Brakes are cooked. $100 eBay brand shocks. 14.5" if memory serves me correct. $20 Black clubman bars $10 Buyer pays shipping and all prices are obo

Found one. Have yet to get it installed. I'll keep you posted with figment etc.

Could owning half a motorcycle lower my insurance rates you think?

Came off an 81. Brand new tire and a clean rim. Brakes will brake, but I'd recommend new shoes in the near future. 170 + shipping

In an attempt to keep everything Yamaha while also gaining horsepower, I recently scored a set of 77 XS750 carbs for 25 bucks from a local pick and pull. Next step is to find yamaha's hotter XS400 cam. Is there anything else I can consider engine wise without having an insane amount of...

Going rear disc on my bike, so I figured I'd try and sell off what I don't need here. Everything is a make offer type scenario. Dirty, but very clean rear wheel with a brand new Avon roadrider tire. 120/80/116. By brand new I mean it has less than 50 miles on it. The swingarm is available...

I've been silent for a while now, mainly because I've been "busy." I got the xs stripped down quite a bit now, but she won't be ready for any rebuild processes just yet.. as I'm not even sure what route I'm taking on the build. It's probably going to be a mishmash of different styles. I'm not...

Alright. So I just snagged an 82 R65ls from a family member, which means the xs will be going under the knife this year and I have a question or two. Engine work: what can I do to this thing? Any big bore potentials, or stroker kits? I've always liked running small cc bikes with big...

So. Newbie question. But what is this and can I delete it?

I lost one of my mufflers in the ghetto and I ain't going back for it. They were biltwell shorties, and they're like a 100 bucks a pop. Whatever. I was actually able to find a used 2 into 1 exhaust for the bike, but while that's on its way am I going to be okay running open pips? I know some...
