I have a 1977D Yamaha xs 650. Its a sweet ride, but I think it could run a lot better than it currently does. My question to pose to you is, where should I start?
Here is some info to point you in the right direction.
- The engine runs fine, but idles a bit high once it warms up
- It backfires on the left side, could be because the inner sleave of the left headpipe is lose at one end.. but i dunno
- very occassionally when i use the kick start, it will blow the carbies right off.. yeah.. crazy huh
- For all I know it hasn't had its engine tuned or carbs look at in years.
If you can give me some helpful advice, especially if you think I should just bring it to a mechanic that would be great. I'm in Sydney, Australia if that helps too.
