86-88 red head black block 89-90 black head black block 91-95 silver head silver block 96 teal head teal block 1996 was the last year for the 650 engine. Only model was the TS. It also came with a cooler.
i also use a stetoscope and fibre optique to check engine , like to listen to the bearing ( dry) , look at the piston for detonation , sleeves damage , also look at the reeds ........ ALL THAT BEFORE TOUCHING THE START . then comp , but with that bolt missing on the cyl !!! big gamble !!! ( but that's just me !!! ) cool video as always , thanks ... Jack
Would love to see any Kawasaki 650 / 750 project build videos. The more how to tips the better. Just picked up a 91 X2 on Saturday. Has a stock 650 with the oil injection deleted and a 28mm carb. I'm swapping a SBN44 on it. I ordered the jetting kit and throttle wheel for it from you guys. Didn't realize you did RUclips videos. I ordered a jetting kit for a Super Chicken I had from you guys. I'm planning to upgrade to a stainless impeller and found a Mariner exhaust pipe for it. Might put a milled head and maybe a lightened flywheel.
I gotta get an X2 someday. All I've had so far is 550, 650sx, and 750sxi. 20 years ago when I was in 7th grade, I rode a friend's X2 and his 550 for about 5 minutes so don't remember much about it, but I got my 550 soon after. Only recently have I found myself wanting to ride a WaveBlaster 1, which I've never had the chance to try. They both look like tons of fun. Kinda wonder how they compare in fun-factor and typical pricing.
86 - 88 had the black engine with red head 89 - 91 black engine black head 92 - 95 silver engine with silver head 38mm carb 86 had the hood vent in the centre 86 - 88 squirrel steering thin linkages 89 - 91 straight cable steering linkage 92 - 95 went back to squirrel steering linkage with beefed up rods
Great video. I would love to see some more X2 content!
Thanks for watching

A lot of times the gaskets have been fused together for so long running it for that long won’t do anything to it

Be sure to hit the subscribe button as we have an upcoming video on the build of that particular ski
1991 was the first year for silver 650 and CDK 2 carb. The graphics Indicate it IS an 87.
You can just look at the ski and tell its mint don’t need to do all those test waste of time
