Hi GoldenBoy & ShuBen,
yes the "CLONK" I know too well.... in the beginning I was quite nervous about it and checked frenetically the steering head and other things, though couldn't find anything... I still have it and get used to it after 1400km... I think ShuBen has a valid point there... just check before and after a long ride and you should be fine...

11-06-2013, 03:00 AMHi everybody.
i have a issue with the chocke.
I use the choke to start the bike up and when the engine is running smoothly I pull it back a little.
But also after riding for a while i cannot remove the choke totally. if I pull it back halfway the engine will turn off on each traffic light.
Anybody got the same issue?
Is that something I can adjust by myself?

have you adjusted the idle speed in warm engine condition? It should run on 1300 +/-100 RPM
This carburetor is still a mysterious thing. When I open the Chock the first moment it runs on higher RPM but then very fast the RPMs going down and finally the engine stops.
I also tried to adjust the pilot screw in warm condition but the effect is minimal to nothing. Only when I reach the inner or outer limit the idle speed changes. Over the long wide distance between in and out it doesnt change at all. (?????)
I call the the carb experts ...... HELP with knowledge!SWM RS500R, R1200GS LC

might be able to cure that with a large o-ring. You can buy them from an engineering supply outfit or if you cant find the right size some rubber tube about 3-4 mm diameter and some super glue. Just make sure the tank can still vent...

Also if you already have water in the gas adding about half a cup of meths to the tank will emulsify the water and allow the engine to eat it.

Surely there must be a O-ring or similar already fitted to the X5. If not then it's a serious oversight, and if there is, then something needs to be done by the manufacturer. I'd be getting the bike back to the dealer and after being polite, creaming bloody "blue murder" stamping my feet until something gets done. Sounds childish, but TIC and that's pretty much how it works when trying to get results. YMMV.

Under the tank nozzle is a rubber ring plate inner diameter about orifice size , outer diameter same as the outer nozzle size. The rubber will be fixed between fuel tank plastic and nozzle by the 5 allen bolts that hold the nozzle in place.
I assume the water goes through the lock into the tank.SWM RS500R, R1200GS LC

11-14-2013, 10:31 AMShuben, did you replace your clutch discs with ones from XR400? I remember reading that you were thinking about it, I wonder if they fit.
Im thinking of buying X5. I have 2 options:
-sell my YBR250, add some cash and get the X5 or
-keep YBR250 and buy the X2X
Im just trying to get all the possible info before i make up my mind
