Hello, thank you! But anyone can help with my question? Is it possible to use Rectifier/Regulator combo on SOHC engines? My lights are getting brighter when Im opening throttle, and dimmer on idle.

Hello everyone! Its been a while since my last login here :) My xs400 still running fine and i use it on daily basis when weather is great. Some time ago, while i was fueling my bike, some guy asked me: "Hey do you want some pro photos of your bike?" i said yeah sure! So here are some photos...

Hello Everyone! It's been a while since my last post... However i noticed strange sound from right part of engine near clutch and decided to take right cover apart. What i found was a bit surprising so it is time to ask you guys for advice. 1. My clutch basket and sprocket behind it has a LOT...

Whoa.... That's look simply amazing :)

Still fighting with carbs but..... MY SPOKE WHEELS ARE FINALLY DONE!!! It took over 6 months to get them finished but damn... it was worth waiting!!!

I don't remember... I tried different settings around 3 turns out, but i don't remember current position.

Tried that. No big difference :) Bike was a bit easier to start but, lacked power on high rpms and after it warmed up, idling was poor and sometimes it died. I'll try Sandrew's setup without any foam :) and let you know! I'll also try new carb setup with H-pipe and also let you know :D Keep...

Thanks, That's great! I'm wondering what needles on the highest position means. Highest means rich mixture or lean mixture?

Thanks. These are original K&N filters. They cost a LOT so i'm trying to get them work properly no matter what :)

Hi! I still have some issues with carbs and still need some help :) In this gallery (link below) you can see what i was trying to do with my POD filters. I bought universal air filter material, cut it in circles to mach internal size of K&N POD filter put them in and secured them with rubber...

Oil is in normal level. Engine is running fine. Idles rather good. On the video i switch off the engine so you can see that the gauge is starting to lit. Cheers!

Guys! I need help! Again... After running bike in rain i noticed that my oil gauge started to show dimly light while bike was running. I immediately switched off the engine... and then oil gauge started to lit very brightly... What do you think? Is this caused by rain and oil pressure sensor...

Ok, thanks! I'll make "stacks" as you did and we will see if this will save my problems.

I'm using Pilot: 45 main 137,5 Needle: stock float: 26,6mm Thanks for any advice :)

That's interesting... i thought, that with big pod filters, i have to much air and the mixture is too lean when i open the throttle rather than too rich. My mixture screws are 3,5 turns out and if i screw them in about 1 turn, it starts popping from mufflers. My spark plug looks like this after...

Once i'm standing still and bike should idle around 1200 rpm.

Thanks. I synchronized them around 1200 rpm according to manual. However bike have some symptoms that bothers me a bit. 1. On cold engine, when i open throttle very quickly bike acting like this: 2. After bike worm up, it idles perfectly BUT, when engine gets hot after riding and i...

Hi! recently i bought pair of vacuum gauges and synchronized carbs. Video below. I hope i did it correctly haha.... I'm still trying to figure out how to set up carbs ... bike run smoothly but i don't now if my fuel/air mixture is lean or not, and i don't have idea how to check it(spark plug...

Haha. Exactly there is no CDI. BUT if you thinking about rewiring whole bike, you should think about changing your ignition to newer, electric type. It's much easier to maintain, than points. Unfortunately i realized that after i rewired whole bike... So i'm stuck with points :) cheers.

hello, I don't have part number, but i know i have "old school" type ignition with points. Like this one.
