Clean out idle circuit on carbs! That's why it revs high right away only main jet is open. I had same problem. Got to love Mr Miyagi!

[@Virago_XV]

Great work Eddie! Keep it up!

[@Virago_XV]

I was super pumped for when it fired up! Congrats!

[@arthurleino]

Good to clean those carbs. My 78 needed a update on the charging system. Yamaha paid for it in 79.

[@waimandododo5760]

Awesome job buddy. I remember well trying to get them carb back in, so many times I've sweated my butt off doing that 😅

Coming along nicely, well done. Good tips from other comments too.

[@groundskeeper5292]

That's a beautiful sound. I've been there. Feels good to get it going. Great job 👍

[@OldBiker]

There are two oil strainers on the XS, a long one underneath and one in the left hand side casing, they can be washed with fuel to clean them, the one underneath is likely to be ripped which is a common fault with those and they are quite expensive. Great bikes and built to last

[@GpunktHartman]

Karatekid? But " mr. Miagy" didn't change the butterflyshaftsealing ... one of the most issue of the BS 38 .... there is a lot to know to adjust, and no, i don' t prefere mr miagys wiremethode to adjust the butterfly. Better you use the gauge that you use for the valvegap. Because the butterflys from soft brass, and the wire / drills will damage the sharp edges of them !!! Your highrevelolution comes , while you adjust syncronisty with wire and do not screw the main idle back down ☝️😉

[@TheVjellyo]

Hey man working on my sr500 as well similar bike as yours def recommend playing around with the air screw to adjust the high idle

[@edmond601]

For sure. I got the vacuum carb sync tool today and will tune the carbs as soon as I can

[@remaxhudson]

Buy a set of JIS screw drivers to make the job easier.

[@LCDAT3]

Hey so I’m getting no spark on my bike sale model but 1979. I replaced both spark plugs and still no spark. Any suggestion on what I should try to do next ?

Yo necesito los carburadores doblé cilindros para la Yamaha XS 650

[@alanlake5220]

Get yourself a "j.i.s." screwdriver / bit, youwill need it working on japaneeses stuff.

[@ToadSprocket-bv6sy]

Ya.. those air cleaners are real junk. If nothing else oil them good. K&N brand actually work better the dirtier they get. So to speak...

[@megaeverything101]

These starters are junk try not to use it
