    Where can I find this fitting? (petcock outlet)

    Hey guys, so the build is slowly coming along. I had a set back, nudged the fuel line from the petcock and it just came loose. The brass fitting was broken and held together with silicone! :wtf: So I used my extractor bit to remove the other half. Now I'm in need of that little fitting but I...

    Rear rail chop

    Factory baffle chop

    Quick question guys, just before I do something stupid I can't reverse. I'm trying to avoid rejetting my carbs, however I've since removed the baffles from the factory mufflers and it obviously wont run right like this. What I'm thinking of doing is, taking the baffles and cutting them...

    Main/Crown Bolt size?

    I apologize, but I've searched and cannot find the size. I'm installing clip ons and new headlight brackets, I've loosened the outer clamps on the triple clamp but I don't know what size the crown bolt is? Is it 21mm? Cheers!

    Question: How Do I remove Muffler Internals

    Hey guys, I'm new here, obviously, and I'm in the process of converting my 82 xs400 into a cafe bike. I noticed that the mufflers have a small bolt which looked to be keeping the internals in place. I removed the bolts on both mufflers and tried popping the internals out with a broom stick...
