Hi. I've had my 1998 XR400R for about a year now, and it's been running perfect. One day I was riding it hard, and it felt like something changed all of a sudden. Very fast, it was not gradual. Now the bike runs really rough pretty much past 1/4 throttle and completely dies at WOT. To add, the...

Hi I had my first test ride following the rebuild last night and another today. I haven't done anything to the insides of the engine. The only thing I changed was the spark plugs. Admittedly I still haven't managed to get the airbox connectors seated properly on the carbs. However it is...

Hi All, My TA is just approaching 20,000 miles and the service book is a bit sketchy. Its a 04 plate, 650. I got it with 18,000 miles on it almost a year ago and I'm guessing its time to get the spanners out. The oil is still cleanish, but I think ill change it anyway, and I had a look at the...
