xt600 2kf
Hello, I haven't viewed the site for a while, then I had my long term Ariel rebuild in hand, (still!) and a GPZ500s,which has proved invaluable. One thing about that bike was the concern for radiator damage,so I bought an XT600 2KF model in France. Something of a mystery, carte d'gris says 1989, previous owner says 1987? Anyway, bought as a non runner,carbs off,manifolds split , general wear and tear. Carb/manifold rekit gave me a runner,but only on choke, stripping again resulted only in reluctant jet holder snapping off in the body even after warming and a special releasing agent. In disgust I put the Yam/Teiki carbs away and ordered a OKO/ Keihin copy 34mm flatslide carb and am setting about making a manifold to make life simpler. Somewhere I saw a series of useful mods, like a centrestand and oil temp gauge who makes these? Thanks
