should i buy - 1987 650SX

[Shifty]

Here is one that I turfed. I would not spend very much cash on any 650sx if it is already in perfect shape.

shifty - did you replace the stock bars for the kawi with superjet bars?

i just did that this afternoon and it seemed to come together rather nicely.

had to shave the nipple off the start/stop switch and do some drilling to the stock yamaha finger throttle.....a buddy of mine took it for a spin today.

where did you find the tray pads? how much did you pay?

 

[SuperFun]

I'd rather drill a hole in the bars than shave the start/stop switch nipple.

what's your logic for that SuperFun

thanks - any idea what ratio i should use?

i've heard 40:1 and 50:1, i put 50:1 in it today and it was smoking really bad.....is that normal?

i know the side exhausy will make it smoke more then a rear exhaust....(my buddy was riding it today and it looked like something you'd see coming out of a chimney

mine is all stock with the head milled. i run 40:1. and yes mine is a smoker to.

Yes, they are the stock SJ bars. I didn't need them after switching to aftermarket so I replaced the horrid SX bars (boomerang). The pads are the originals with new vinyl. If I did it over again I would turf the entire tray area instead of upholstering.
