Yep, test them with the 43 and 112. I think it will be better. Once you fit them check the choke is adjusted so its fully closed and that the...
Looks like you are making progress. So that was new carbs with the stage 3 jets? If so, I would try those carbs with the stock jets to see what...
Good luck, as long as those Carbs are clean inside it should run.
Yep, there are the air inlets. I personally like Iridium plugs, these have resistors built in so you shouldn't use them with stock plug leads that...
Hi mate, check this link to find your model, http://xjbikes.wikidot.com/carb-specs should be 40 pilot and 110 main. XJ750 carbs will fit but have...
Hi mate, I have pods as well as other engine mods and it runs fine. Did take some tuning though. Pods alone wont need stage 3 jets, sounds like...
Have you thought about using an XJ750 crank with oversized pistons? This will make your 650 an 820cc....
Hi mate, just clean the rotor with some "wet and dry", I'd use around 600 or even 400 grit. It should clean up easily... Then you may as well...
Sounds like the rotor needs to be cleaned and maybe you need new brushes as well…
Check this video to see how I cleaned my tank which was quite rusty inside. I’ve done this to a few tanks and it works great and is also very...
Hi, I can’t really see from your pics. I installed an M unit blue on my XJ650. It’s a good unit and fairly easy to connect. I did do a video on...
All you need to do is swap your stock flasher unit with a new one that suits LED's. These are not expensive and are pretty common...
My guess is it’s carby related. Probably not what you want to hear, but if it was me I’d pull the carbides apart and check all slides are free,...
Yep, I did it on my engine and its perfect. A straight fit and very easy mod...
Not sure what method you used, but I'd suggest checking the fuel sender as there are delicate wires in there that don't like chemicals or electrolysis
Yep, agree on using Yamabond or even Suzuki equivalent, Suzuki BOND 1215. Just a thin coat is all that's needed. In fact if faces are clean then...
Hi mate, 6 Sigma has the jet kit you need. https://www.6sigmajetkit.com/yamaha-xj-750-maxim-jet-kit.html
All good, no such thing as a silly question....
I purchased my seals on eBay, they are from Germany…...
Yes, the v side of the seal is on the outside of the carby and the other side is square faced and goes on the inside edge.
Hi mate, I can’t open your pic but take another look at my video as I do show the seals faces with the v on the outside. Remember your carb is...
Hi mate, check out my video on how to clean the tank out so its like new. Mine was pretty dirty and total time was 2 days to complete... [MEDIA]
Hi mate, I have pods, 4-2 exhaust and a lot of engine mods. Check out my videos as they might help you. As a start I’d suggest going only plus 2...
if its just the main seal leaking why don't you just replace that only with its o-ring? You only need those tools if you plan to remove the pinion...
Try giving the starter motor a few taps. My bet is it’s the brushes worn out in the starter.
Hi mate, might be too late but it’s not very hard to replace the main seal and oring. Just standard hex bolts and a cover to remove. As long as...
There factory marks to show bearing and spacer sizing for crank and drive gear. Pretty sure it’s explained in the manual.
Hi mate, check this link https://www.cmsnl.com/yamaha-xj750_model16831/?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIsJGw2f6U-AIVT5hmAh2lrQuHEAAYASAAEgIQcvD_BwE It’s my go...
Sorry, I thought you were asking how it fits into the slide. Chacal is right, that plastic piece needs to be pushed down onto the ledge of the...
Nice one, sounds like it will be a runner…good luck with it!
It looks right, the needle goes into the slide and is held with a spring and plastic bolt. Check my video as it might help. [MEDIA]
No issue with ribbed or smooth. I swapped my original smooth XJ650 cover with a ribbed version from an XJ750P as I think it looks better
Seems odd you can’t get the bolt in, can’t say I had any issue with the original 10mm hex head….something doesn’t sound right with your guide, got...
Hi mate, check out my rebuild video below. I used hex heads but socket heads will work too. I use Loctite on bolts inside the engine to be sure...
The latest version from Yamaha has only two bolts. Mine was the same. My vote is it’s fine as Yamaha must have had a good reason to make the change..
Hi Franz, no I didn’t replace the washers. Just all rubber seals, gaskets and jets…the shaft washer thickness is not that critical as the shaft...
Hi, I don't think the XJ900 calipers will work on the XJ650. The discs are much bigger and not sure its a great idea to mix things up like that...
Hi mate, check out my video which shows the choke ports in the float casings, my bet is they are blocked and will be the cause of your cold start...
Hi mate, your first problem sounds like a wiring issue, maybe follow the cables from the blinkers to see where its wrong. Pressing the lever...
Hi, it could be a lot of things but very likely related to a carby issue. Has something been changed on the carbies or was it running fine before?...
I've used the 6Sigma jet kit on my XJ650. I started with 45 pilot and 150 main but was too rich. Ended with 42 pilot and 125 main. Took a fair...
On my XJ that u joint has enough resistance to hold itself up. I use a torch and stick a bar in there around 1/2 inch diameter to get it lined up....
Hey guys, I pulled my carbs apart today. I measured the emulsion tubes and can confirm all external dimensions and side holes are identical. I...
Thanks Chacal. With regards to my current cams, what I did was purchase a very low kilometre (7000) 11M head to install on my XJ650 engine case....
Interesting stuff. I also notice my XJ750P mixture screws are fine thread and XJ650 are course, so the whole 2.5 turns goes out the window. Other...
Thanks Chacal, I have the WA version, 37H HSC32 carbs, so can I assume they are like a stock XJ750 which I also understand is the same as an XJ650...
do you know if the Y13 and Y14 emulsion tubes are identical?
Thanks guys. I never thought about the emulsion tube orientation but as hogfiddles said I agree there's a pin there to locate it. I will check...
Hey Guys, As you might know I rebuilt my engine a while back and made several mods. Started as an XJ650, now bored and stroked with XJ750 crank to...
Depends what you want. If budget is the top priority then try RTV, if not I'd suggest buying a decent quality set. EBay has both so I'd go for a...
