Does anyone know of a stockist for the oil cooler's adaptor bolt ? Thanks, Yepper.
Hi Rick, Just did a quick search - dynosport.com/jetkits.pdf - quoting $122 Also dynojet.co.uk, but they're quoting £106.80 ie about...

Apologies, Rick. Everyone.

I bought one of those repair kits, the quality is way below what you should expect, considering the cost. In particular, the o-ring that...
There's another site, but I don't know how to hyperlink... Anyway, search 'JP7'. Should get you to his trike page, and away you go from...
Well, that's good enough for me ! Pictures up in my gallery.
Ok Rick, thanks again. About priming the cooler... do you have any strong opinion about that ? I seem to recall a posting where someone (...
Yeah Kiwi, it was advertised as being off a 750, and when I offered it up, the brackets and bolts all look right. Looks good too. I've seen...
Rick, You got me fretting now ! The apparatus I have is not finned, but does have the same arrangement of oil lines at either side, to and...
That's all great to hear ! Thanks to you both. If anyone can recommend a supplier of that adaptor bolt, I'd appreciate it. Yep
Hi XJer's, Good to be back posting after a few months. Anyway, I got a Lockhart oil cooler off ebay, and would like to ask some advice. Is...

Hi XJer's, On the XJCD, in the Pictures part of disk 1, right at the top of the 650R selection - blue, white stripes on the tank. Lovely...
Hi, Yeah tried every combination I could think of... frustrating. Will be back on the case on Wednesday, hoping for the best.

oops - that should say - 'removed the safety relay', not the starter relay. sorry
Hi XJ'ers, Big problems. New battery, new plugs. Fuses check. Coils ohm test ok, and sparks with plugs grounded. Starter motor brushes...
I have a question that relates to the 'weak spark' issue. If you ground the plug and see a spark, can you assume that the plug is sparking as well...
Battery. If it's weak - - it can still turn the starter but voltage goes so low that ignition not spark well, maybe not at all. - draw too...
Since no-one else had the basic sense to let you know... you should put this into the forum for tech discussion of non-xj bikes. Sorry I can't...

Er, I meant I'd rather let something eat away at the rubber overnight, than hurry and gouge the alu. ;-)
Thanks guys - I guess not being in any hurry, I was happy to avoid the risk of gouging or scoring the tube, by letting something eat away at it...

I've been told you can use ATF instead of fork oil, or 20 weight fork oil if sir would like it a bit stiffer.
