Gasket and tool
There is no chance of my tool leaking. It slides in completely and you screw the factory end plug back in. Has orings at correct locations....
I agree. It does make a difference but it is very little. I synced my xj900 without then installed the tool. If was slightly off.
Was thinking it has to be lean. The choke didnt seem to be enough. This also supports super lean. I could have propaned the manifold but I rather...
All stock. PO drilled a bunch of holes in lid. Running paper filter. Dynojet jet kit and I went up one size on pilot. Mix screws 3 turns out.
Hello everyone , I'm finishing up my 750 and having a strange experience. I have the block off tool and have used it to sync my xj900. Works...

If thats the Mobil 1 syn the problem is too many additives already. I tried syn in my XJ900 that has 25k. Starter clutch was not happy. Drained it...
Rotella for my XJ's And for just a good read on a diesel motorcycle....
Are these caps the bearing surfaces for the camshaft? If so changing a cap will cause incorrect clearance or even no clearance at all. The caps...

Just curious did anyone make a taller windshield for a seca 900 like the one my 750 came with? Thanks

In fact lens are the same. I put LED on the 750 and the original lens from it were in perfect same. I swapped them to the 900.
Yes. Same as my seca 750 just chrome.
Today I swapped out the one turn signal that was black for the correct chrome one. Scored it off Ebay for $10.
Ok I'm back. Bone in healed and I'm walking again. Took the bike out and it felt so good to be in the saddle again. Hurts to shift but pain of not...

Thanks everyone. As soon as I'm on my feet I will start with all the connectors. Being intermittent it's a good chance it will be fixed.
