I bought a manual tire machine a week or two ago. I used it to break the bead on my 1100F. It works AWESOME. I don't own my XJ anymore, but I...
Re: Carb bank HSC32 Hitachis from 1981 xj650/ dynojet remain SOLD! Admin, please delete this thread to free up space.
These are parts carbs. If you wanted to put them on a bike, you'd need a donor rack or some rebuild parts. You'd also need an ultrasonic bath or a...
Re: Carb bank HSC32 Hitachis from 1981 xj650/ dynojet remain Still here. I've gotta take some extra pics for people who wanna feel better about...
I've got a semi-complete set of carbs from an xj650. According to the manuals, they are HSC32's I believe. These are rebuildable. I have never had...
Invoice sent. Thanks! Dan
It's a vacuum actuated petcock off an 82 xj650j. I sold the bike a while back and I still have this. It needs a kit b/c it leaked, but these parts...
I just bought a 12mm (for my honda) on ebay(etoolcart) for around 69 bucks shipped and everything. Mine has something wrong with it. Apparently,...
Sold her today for 1200. :( Sad to see her go, but money's tight around here, and I've got a cb1100f to break in proper..... Peace, boys!
Ummm.... Looks liks somebody's jacked with your carbs before. I can't find those specs in the service manuals. Unfortunately, I sold my XJ650...
I just switched to Rotella, and it runs better than any oil I've used to date. Used Castrol 25-50 before it became "energy conserving", then went...
I've got a nail in the tread of my rear tire. Can you use the same plugging kit you use on a car tire to patch these? Tubeless tire.
The stock main jet size on your bike can be found in the service manual, or the haynes manual. As for the flat spot, it helps to know how...
Thanks for the tip. I'm 6'3", so I'd kinda like a longer bike, I think...
That's odd. It only officially weighs a little less than 100lbs more than the XJ. They do seem much longer, though. Maybe that's the handling...
I'm considering selling my XJ. I have parts coming from soslow, so I'll need to throw those on, but I'm almost sure I'm going to sell. Will...
I think I'm gonna sell my maxim and purchase an 1100f. I'm talking to a guy in Dallas about one, but I can't buy it until I generate some cash...
Check your PM's. Address sent. Dan
Well at least it got a response here! I'm thinking he asks high, and then you come in and negotiate down to a real price and think you're...
Click here It's in Houston, TX.
I'm also looking for a left front peg (shifter side)
I've found that a lot of ppl who post on CL are a bit flaky and don't reply to stuff forever, or simply are idiots. Some are not. It may be that...
PM me with a quote. Zip code 77018 Houston TX
This is not my bike. I came across the ad on craigslist. It's near Austin TX. I don't know if any of you guys are interested. I've got my hands...
Hey, Soslow. Check your PM's man! I'd really like to know if you have the tach or not. If you want mo' money or something, say so. I'm lost in...
Get on ebay. There are several pairs of them on right now. They're called engine guards or crash bars. The ones from the xj550 will fit also. I...
Umm. Yeah. DO NOT PUT AN AUTOMOTIVE PCV VALVE ON YOUR CRANKCASE VENT if you are running pods! Trust me. It is bad. I have the oil leaks to...
Thanks. That's very helpful. Now all I need to do is figure out how cheap I can make the insurance, and how I can expand my paycheck to let a new...
Yeah, the carbs should have a diaphragm/needle setup. I don't know if your particular year is the same, but the stock needles on my xj were...
I have the electronic type. My Hanes talks about the tach with a cable, but this one just has wires. It is working intermittently (mostly not...
Do you have any mods on the intake or exhaust? Flatspots are usually caused by fuel/air ratios. On mine, I had to adjust the needles up a little...
Wow. This is great. This is the most techy talk I've seen on XJbikes. I think I'm getting a stiffy.... Oh wait, no that's the atmospheric...
I'm going to mostly be commuting on it. I do quite a bit of interstate riding in Houston, where traffic is pretty thick, mostly traveling 75mph+....
I'm thinking about getting a Ninja 500. I like the older design of the body as opposed to the newer "tank in your craw" crotchrockets. The 250,...
What type are you referring to? Is there supposed to be a pic here or something?
The blowby is produced by the opposite motion of the pistons (I think) as well as what little pressure "blows by" the rings from the combustion....
Replace EGR with PCV in the above post. I think :wink: EGR comes off the exhaust, and I don't know of any bikes that have them.
I work at an environmental testing supply company, so I know how dirty things already are around here. I guess mostly I want the thing to be...
I want to plumb my crankcase vent back into my intake so that I'm burning most effeciently. I have K&N knockoff pods. The have metal ends, so...
www.crc2onlinecatalog.com I got a valvecover gasket and the bolt seals for less than half the dealer price, and it got here really fast. They...
Haynes says my bike has an automatic chain tensioner, and cannot be adjusted manually. I haven't pulled the cover to look at the chain, but I...
I have rejetted recently. Pods and pipes were already there, so I just did it. I got the Dynomax kit from MAWonline, and IT CAME WITH A COUPON FOR...
I actually had foam pods (by UNI) running on mine before the ebay ones. The bike ran fine (just a little lean, but that could have been adjusted...
I have a Mac exhaust on it, so I don't think the pipes are double walled. On second examination, I can't really hear it from the top of the...
I'm getting what I can only describe as a "rattle" at partial throttle. The sound goes all the way through the exhaust - and no, it is not a...
I used 52mm pods I got off ebay. Unless you have a colortune (or exhaust analyzer), as well as a sync tool, I would not suggest it. You will need...
Googled xj650 and sorted through junk. I think I bought the xjcd before I even found this forum, so I probably went through a couple of other...
I have a spare HSC32 Hitachi carb, but according the xjcd yours takes an HSC33. I'm not sure if the bodies are the same.... If you can find out...
Yup. Pods and a Mac 4-1. I've gotten it to run down the road now... I'm still tweakin' (just trying to read the new plugs I put in yesterday)...
I've rejetted my carbs with a dynojet stage 3 kit. I've gotten it to idle, but when under load, the engine bogs BADLY. It isn't even rideable....
