- This time around we start the process of trying to tune up the XJ. We get stuck into makin our own axillary fuel tank (complete with custom fuel tap) and discover a potentially show stopping problem!
Hey mate, just bought an 83 xj650 maxim and just so happened to stumble across your videos! I'm from wanganui and am about to tackle this awesome project of a bike. But I'll have to get it re complied as the rego lapsed 23 years ago! Cheers mate!
I’m 18, just bought my first bike, 1982 xj650 maxim. I get my motorcycle endorsement next month, im gonna tear it apart and rebuild it piece by piece for peace of mind. These videos are already helping sooooo much, the xj community is very helpful but it’s just different watching someone else go through the process.
Thats great to hear! It's been a journey of learning for me, but really satisfying. Make sure you pick up a workshop manual for all of the various specs etc. My other main tip would be to really go nuts on cleaning the carbs. They can be real gremlins.
If you want to see someone who really knows their stuff work on an XJ, check out this playlist from Mezzmo Engineering (I've found it super helpful): ruclips.net/video/Ar-wsiryUPQ/видео.html
hi friend, just came across ur channel, u obviously put a lot of work into ur videos, and its a shame u dont have more of a following. i just recently rebuilt an XJ bike, as much as it sucks to have to tear down the engine, it is nice to have that peace of mind that everythign is new. my bike had 39K before i tore it down. as for the mixture screws, the Gunsen tuner is... good but i often find it difficult to get right. read the spark plugs, if black, lean out the screw, if clean, richen it. ull go through a few plugs but they are nickel, like 3 bucks a plug
There is a second chain that powers the alternator (the round thing under the carbs), it has a tensioner that fails.
Hi from Latvia, cool video, I also have one of these, still struggling to make all cylinders working properly
Hey there! Thanks for watching. Yes, I feel your pain! My latest video has an update on how things have progressed a bit, but I'm having the same issues.
I'm hoping more carb cleaning and a good sync will help. Let me know if you manage to figure out your issues. We might be fighting the same fight!
