  • Carb diaphragms

    Ok, we have got to find a source for carb diaphragms. I have a hole in two of mine. Makes it very hard to tune with holes in them. I have been looking all over the place for these things, with know luck. The way I look at it, if we don't start looking for them, soon our bikes want be worth anything. It just seems to me, that with all the XS11's out here there should be someone making these things in the USA. Any ideas fellows.

    If the holes are smallish you can patch them. If they are really torn out and not repairable, I have heard of some pople making new ones themselves out of rubber gloves, or any piece of gasoline resistant rubber sheet. Try a search. If not on this forum, try google, there is plenty of info on how to make them.
