Interesting.. it is an old bike so, I’d like to avoid any unnecessary stresses. I’m with you on the preemptive oil changes. I’ll get my hands...
Or does this “wrong oil” hypothesis only apply to clutches with a master cylinder? -Zach
Y’all rock. I will inspect clutch ASAP. I did change the oil very very recently as the temperatures dropped.. And the clutch doesn’t seem to be...
(1982 xj650 Seca Non-yics) Hey everybody! I have my bike together but I'm starting to feel it slip when I really goose the throttle. It used to...
Y’all rock. I really like the twist-on filter idea also. Forgot to add, I located the gummed up carb and gave it a thorough cleaning. I should...
silly question, but my Haynes Owners Workshop Manual doesn’t specify, which oil filter do I need to buy? Cause: Had a stuck carb float, which...

Thanks, I'll run through the voltage drop test and start the troubleshoot that way. In the meantime, I'll try to track down a TCI and find...
New battery came in. It gave me a stronger turn-over from the starter but still no spark... Any ideas? -Zach
Just ordered a new battery. It'll be here by the 29th. I'll update the results of the battery swap. Keeping my fingers crossed... -Zach
The black/white is plugged in but the pic was at an awkward angle. However, an appropriate battery will be my first step. Again, I don't think...
My battery has 13.45v after charging all day and dropped to 9.88v after the first crank. I'll start with ordering a replacement (to spec) battery....
