    Project "walrus" Yam XS 750

    Apologies OP, I’ll start a thread if nobody PM’s me. You’re right data, it takes two to tango but only one set of stairs to end a pregnancy...

    Project "walrus" Yam XS 750

    Where do I go with the new rectifier and regulator? With nothing plugged in on that side, everything works(lights, ignition, starter) except the charging system. This has an igniter unit so I guess I own an SE special. Sorry about the mess, any assistance appreciated as I am limited with time...

    Project "walrus" Yam XS 750

    Wow, 20 pages since I last visited and all good stuff. Sorry, Can’t help on the video but sounds a little louder than standard valve-train mechanical noise. How’s oil pressure? My 79 lost charging, traced it back to a coil with no continuity from the plug. Is this common? I assumed it was...

    Where to go with an RD400 and not lose my a$$

    Exactly, and if the cylinders are FUBAR $$$$ or downtime. They make 3.2 oz bottles of 2T oil and you know what you're putting in at the pump so it's not rocket science to premix. I run closer to 40:1 on my high output triple snowmobile engine but had to tune jets closely for safe EGTs as...

    Where to go with an RD400 and not lose my a$$

    Been looking for one of these or H1/H2 nonchalantly for a few years so you stole the bike in that condition. I would do a mild port job, oil inj. delete, and make it look and perform exactly how you want it. Desirable? Not many people have 2T knowledge and the youth to enjoy something like...

    XS750 No spark

    Interceptor is correct. 10 Volts will not allow an XS750 to provide adequate spark for combustion.

    Cm450c cafe

    I've built an 82' for a guy, pretty straightforward except the stamped rear. Little bit of rear tubing design/welding and seat possibilities are endless. Left the side covers on and didn't run pods without being a kick and boogey. I take that back, I swapped it to a CBR front but originally I...

    Project "walrus" Yam XS 750

    Running pods and 3-1 open MAC I had to richen the needle a notch from factory on the MKIIs. 132.5 was plenty of main on the big end with my 750 jug set.

    XS 750 blinker craze

    Pull the bulb from the signal indicator between the gauges and see if that changes anything. You aren't running LED's by chance are you?

    Got my bike!

    A lot of guys use a reverse cone shorty, but I like mine loud(neighbors too!) so I initially modified my 3-1 baffle and eventually ended up running open. I almost forgot how much chrome/polished aluminum are on the stock Yami triples, good luck with your shafty.

    Two Stroke Cylinder Boring

    U.S. Chrome in Wisco does a nice job for my big bore triple snowmobile engines as well. Gotta pay to play, especially with NiCaSiL

    Motorcycle with a Plc or related????

    What exactly are you going to remove using a PLC? Yes there are 12V logic controllers for vehicle use. You still have to run wires to anything that requires switched voltage. Sounds like more trouble than it's worth for something as simple as a motorcycle.

    Noob LED integrated taillight

    Yep, good tape on those but if it's cold and you're adhering it to a decent radius I'd apply some heat before. I use 2 universal tail lights for added visibility but I would solder and heat shrink either way. If you want a quick disconnect terminal just solder to the larger gauge wire so you...

    Project "walrus" Yam XS 750

    I use a sealed AGM 200 CCA, plenty to turn the motor over cold to burn up your starter. They say these are plug and play but I still gave it a bump with 10 amps for several hours, the battery voltage should be 12.5-13 sitting. I'm seeing 14+ above 2K rpms with the charge system. What is your...

    PODS BOG 74 cb360

    No where in my statement did I say to cut up a plug and check his tune throughout the range because we know it's not ready for that. Pulling a plug and visually inspecting wet or dry can be done instantaneously and is very "useful" for the minute it takes...

    PODS BOG 74 cb360

    Run it for a few seconds in the flat spot and kill the motor, what do the plugs look like? You need to confirm the questions above first though.

    Project "walrus" Yam XS 750

    Even though tuning my MKII's with pods was super easy, I'm thinking of trying a set of 38mm flatsides that I have on my Edge XCR 800 for fun.
