Just to update, I was wrong, the rectifier was good, just needed to figure out the stator wiring. Don't throw out your rectifiers!

My rectifier on my 1977 doesn't check out, and just want to replacement. No combo RR or rewiring as my Voltage regulator is good. I would imagine this https://www.amazon.ca/gp/aw/d/B09151NK7L?ref=ppx_pt2_mob_b_prod_image Would fit the bill (3 wires for each diode, 2 wires for + and - )?

Finally getting around to the little things to finish off my XS360 and not be tinkering every couple weeks. I misplaced my hinge pins long ago and wanted to get the same size and diameter as the stock ones if anyone could grab me that info off theirs. I have a couple bolt suppliers nearby so...

Thanks! I've been trying to find one locally to avoid the absurd shipping some of these guys charge, but I might have to bite the bullet and go for that

Got my bronze bushings in hand, but my local junkyard just has an unmarked box of different swingarm pivots, so a measurement would help me make sure I'm coming home with the correct one since I can't pull my existing one without cocking up the whole thing, then if they don't have a replacement...

Hoping someone could help me out. My current swingarm pivot bolt is seized in the swingarm and it won't be coming out without some serious damage to it, so i'm on a search for a new one at a couple wreckers nearby. I don't want to pull it and potentially ground my bike for a few weeks if I can't...

Anyone know of a source for new springs for our mechanical advancers? I know mikesxs has a set for the 650, but have no idea if they'd be the same.rension as the ones on our bikes. I know some guys say to cut a coil if it's advancing too early, but I'd rather just spend the money on a couple new...

To go back to your question about points, I don't think there's a limit on point t life unless they're pitting, chipping unevenly or you have a bad condensor causing arcing. As long as they're wearing normally and you periodically gap them bad to the correct clearance, I don't think points with...

That's too bad. Not a cheap piece of kit to have go.

Blown out?

Funny you should mention that, because I didn't note that I have the PAMCO kit. So you removed your PAMCO and went back to points? I was starting to think actually, maybe one of the springs on the advancer is significantly weaker than the other, and is going to full advance too quickly...

After a couple years of tuning and tweaking, I've gotten to the point that my XS360 with a 400 engine runs consistently. The only strange thing remaining is that on startup, and really any RPM below 3000 it seems as though the right cylinder cuts out. I've cleaned and synced the carbs, timed the...

I'm trying to find a suitable seal online, did you have any luck from a dealership? Or cross referencing off another bike? I'm not coming up with anything

Ah ok .so then shaving the rivets off is the only way. Thanks folks

Hey, anyone know the secret to disassembling an XS360 gas cap? I've gotten to the point I see no way of removing the "puck" and have no more screws to take out

Mistakenly threw out mine.Anyone have a spare kicking around?

Where are you located?

I still have the mechanical advancer. I had rebuilt the engine but it seems following the advice of my Clymer is getting me to where I am now. Unless if it's normal for a motorcycle to idle stronger without the prescribed ignition timing afforded by dynamically lining up the LF mark with a...

Ended up changing my battery and the issues were solved. Just in case someone else is holding out on it, it's often the obvious things we overlook

Another update, I tried switching the cam sprocket around to potentially make up for a bit of possible stretch in the chain. Still off. I was going to try my 360 cam to see if the came are timed differently, but I don't know if that's possible given the rotors are the exact same. I'm about...
