    Need a few odds and ends.

    Hi everyone,
    I'm just about to be back on the road, but I need a few small peices. I can't seem to find the o-ring for the m/c resevoir, you know the one that fits between the plastic and the aluminum base. Also, I need a few of the original exhaust flange nuts. Also, I can't find the rubber peices for mounting the rear turn signals. I have checked parts n more for these and K&L doesn't have them either. If anyone knows where to find them, or just has a few laying around that they would sell, let me know.

      Hey Jacker,

      Sorry, but Mike's XS doesn't carry the correct rubber grommets, the 650's are quite different than the XS11.

      A quick search of BikeBandit reveals the following:

        TC, isn't 09-6505 a replacement assembly? If not, I apologize Jacker!

          Hey Tommy,

          The "kit" for the 650 uses an egg shaped rubber grommet, I don't think it will fit very well into the large round grommet hole of the XS frame??

            After the prodigious amount of alcohol needed for me to work on the Falcon, it appears my eyes deceived me. If your seeing double, something round might look egg shaped!

                Xtreme Powersports shows prices for the signal mount washers and exhaust flange nuts, which means they are available (even if a little pricey). No luck on the mc o-ring, though
