Hello Mezo,

Thanks mate i truly appreciate your effort on trying to help me This has cleared up all my confusions and now i can just go ahead and tidy up the wiring loom so it no longer binds. Thanks again.

IF you can find an OEM service manual for the 43F they all show cable routing.

EDIT: Hang on, this has been asked before HERE now i scanned an XT600 diagram by mistake which means i have it somewhere. :scratch:

Hello Mezo,

I have a clymer manual however it's useless when comes to ...

Hello all,

Would you guys know the proper routing for the wiring bundle behind the headlight on the 43F XT600?

I tried a different way but don't seem to work out at all and on clymers manual they didn't illustrate about it. Any help would be great thanks.

Jack.

Hello all,

The rear shock on my 43F isn't at the best working order so i'm thinking of servicing it with some fresh oil and such since these things are not always on
the maintenance list. Or just replace OEM shock if it's not serviceable? What do you guys think?

You mean the top cap on the fuel tank? You reckon since it hasn't got a vent tube maybe it's restricting the fuel flow?

Update: replaced the secondary slide...didn't really help at all. As soon as it approaches 4000RPM it starts to rattle. Any ideas?

It doesn't sounds like it's running out of fuel but rather struggle to go anymore than 4000RPM when i tried it today...i will replace the diaphragm slide first since it's been 30+ years old with possibly torn rubber and see how it goes.

Revs clean and responsive when i blip the throttle.. that's not problem there however i just can't understand why it wouldn't go past 3500-4000RPM. Engine just went through a rebuild so i'm still taking it easy for the initial 1000kms.

Hello all,

I've noticed something strange about the rev on my '84 XT600. For some reason i cannot get it to rev anymore then 4500RPM. It didn't really bother me that much since i generally cruise on 100/110km/h at about 3000-3500RPM which it's the fastest speed limit i can do in my area. However on ...

Sounds like something is either worn out or grinding with another part on/behind the primary gear. The best bet would be starting from the simple things by taking the clutch cover off and have a thorough inspection on each part until you find the issue.
