    Print sticker to mask for painting?

    Vinyl works great for that, I did my side covers and a couple of helmets that way. You just want to make sure they aren't super sticky so they don't leave a residue and aren't too hard to remove.

    LED resistors - getting a bit TOO warm

    Yeah that does seem high for shipping. I remember it showing up via canada post in a small envelope. The whole unit is actually smaller than a typical load resistor too.

    LED resistors - getting a bit TOO warm

    Tim, junk the resistors. I used one of these on my XS and it works perfectly and there's no heat issues. Cheaper than resistors too I think. http://cgi.ebay.ca/12V-Adj-Flash-Electronic-LED-Flasher-Relay-Bike-C-/150618727125?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&hash=item23119362d5

    When was the last time is ran properly and what has changed? Plugs will foul with the choke on when the bike is running properly, but it sounds like the bike is running really rich. Stock carbs or have they been rejetted?

    Hey Noel, did you get a chance to see if you had an extra master lying around? Even if it's from a different bike we may be able to get it to work for me. Thanks!

    Need a rear master for a Yamaha XS 650

    This is the best pic I can get at the moment. You can't see it well, but it's the plastic elbow going into the hose with the clamp on it. XS's with mag wheels had rear disk brakes.

    Camera recommendation?

    I shoot Nikon (D5000). There are some deals to be had for older D40 and D60 models and they are great cameras with some awesome cheap lenses available. I've also heard really good things about the new Canon S90 point and shoot. It has a very fast f2 lens which is very unusual for a point and...
