hi just a question but wanted to know if i should be able to push any of the valves by hand. its just because i want to torque down the cams but i...
Ive been rebuilding my bike for a while now, with many setbacks (sigh). today i was reassembling the final drive and rear wheel. When I put the...
thanks guys...I ordered one from len because I need to get the bike back together in a hurry.
I somehow had my intake camshaft shear in half while rebuilding the engine. Might have been faulty, don't know. question is im looking for a new...
The camshaft i have sheared. Don't know why. need a new one. used or new is fine.
try the sell swap trade buy forum....ask around there. someone will have it.
i dunno....i like the haynes. and thats only 35 or so
your alternator case is above the gearbox and in front of your starter motor. if the alternator brushes are too short, they can lead to the first...
out of curiosity what is the length of your alternator brushes? as well, did you only connect the two wires as chacal said?
did you change anything first? or did they stop working of their own accord?
sounds like you are running very rich on fuel. that or somehow not enough air is getting into the chamber. have you tuned the carbs yet? or...
or you could take out the clamp and bolt them to the frame like they say lol.
well on the list would be rebuilding your carbs. if you want to keep it stock look at aftermarket shocks and look at chacal's list of supplies he...
if you want the effect of the turbo try using pod filters, it accomplishes the same thing if you tune your engine correctly, but to a lesser...
do you know anything about turbos? that would be a huge modification. You would prob have to do all the calculations yourself about how much...
pics?
i love when ebay is wrong. thats a seca, but it also has some maxim parts. its a regular frankenstein:P
u never know...ppl are always looking....and you could always part out the bike :) lmk if you do..im interested.
what kind of light is it? did you replace the electrical? did you replace the fusebox?
is it just the screws that are messed up? welcome to the site. I would take a look around at some of the maintenance stuff you should do....
how much for the rear fender struts
I would say that the most likely cause is that your carbs have been sitting and need a good complete cleaning, bench synching, and tuning. also...
have you cleaned out the carbs and sync'ed them fully? what about mixture screws? did you bench sync and fine tune?
rofl....already dealt with the seat
i have the same thing. I bled the brake lines and then took the cover off after much coercing and a screw extraction kit.
bleed the brake lines, check the pads and rotors.
almost done the maintenance. all the parts are now in the mail. pics of the the before will be posted tonight. So far the engine is in excellent...
have you done a compression test, have you fooled with the mixture screws, is it airbox or pods, and how well did you clean those carbs?
Ive tried getting it off a couple ways. I dont want to damage it, just replace the engine gaskets. Anyone have any ideas/suggestions?
for the wheel you should check the dimensions of the 2 different ones. i would think its the same, since the 700 is just the american version of...
yeah pretty much....they are nigh impossible to come by.
the easiest way to do it if you haven't stripped the screw is to apply more leverage. find a pipe or something in your garage and slide it onto...
wat kind of seat is that? I've been looking around to swap out the stock one but haven't been able to find any really good ones.
the only thing i can think of is that you have a short somewhere in your wiring that causing too much load to be drawn every time you try and...
you should also consider trading that fusebox for a blade one from chacal. Mines on the way now.
k thx for the input guys.
I'm looking to change up the look of my maxim and wanted to put seca shocks on. would 550 seca shocks work on a 750 maxim? the shocks are 83 the...
Care to race? :P
are the seca shocks up for grabs and what condition are they in?
if it were me I would, but lets see what other ppl have to say. I'm not paint expert lol.
yes and no lol....depends on what you're looking for. try pming chacal or going through his list of stuff for sale to see if you can find what you...
let me know if ur interested in parting out the seca separately...might be interested in the rear shocks
are you sure you mean air shocks?
do you mean the stock lights? or new ones?
edit your original post....change the title....itll fix everything.
what did you use for the rear fender?
Re: Two XJ650 Midnight Maxims (PART OUT) *PRICES REDUCED 50% srry to ask but if you have a chance can you post the parts remaining and prices...
can you pm me pics of the shocks and front tire?
question....is that seat meant to fit one person? or two? lol
try posting this in the sell swap trade wanted forum. It's where you're most likely to get a response.
