Hi,
The air box has been modified to draw air from the front of the seat.
The bike has a seat lock which can be used to secure a helmet.
The pilot and main Jets were smaller and I've changed them now.

Jolyon, how is it running now with your new carb set up?

Hi Donnybach,
Yes, it seems fine. Certainly a little cooler. I don't ride it hard though and I have no other xts to compare with. The Plug is a nice colour, accelerates smoothly, starts well, etc.

Some nice rare additions on there. I’ve got a riky cross centrestand but someone put the wrong bracket on it so I’ll need to alter it to fit. Like the front light guard/rack.

Re: Got my 1Vj but it's a 1Vk
Thank you. It is useful to have. I'm replacing the lower link bushes today so I'm glad I've got a centrestand.
