Title: Replacement Carb Diaphragms
Post by: FJ1100mjk on November 07, 2011, 03:18:27 PM
Found these recently, but have not ordered any. They have them for the BS36 Mikunis.

Good score Marty! I'll put this link in the Files section for future reference. Thanks!

I've been meaning to order some of those for my XS650.  The 650s came with either 34s or 38s if I have my facts straight.  I didn't remember JBM offering them for BS36s last time I looked on their site.  Very cool indeed.  I'm interested to hear how these work out.  I've heard a lot of buzz about these in the XS650 world but I don't think that I've ever heard from anyone who has used them other than the XS650 chopper/bobber idiots whose bikes run like crap anyway from the pods and straight pipes.  Not to say that the JBM diaphragms won't work, though.  It seems like a great idea.
I think that I've seen two or three (very poorly typed) threads on some 650 forums where guys want to know how to put an open primary on their XS650 "like on a Harley"  :dash2:

The real hot setup for the XS650's I thought was swapping over to VM's?

Bit of a hijack, sorry.

Randy....That thread is just for the carb Files.

Here is where we discuss them.....

We try to keep the discussion posts out of the File sections. That way the Files remain concise. That's the idea anyway...

Now that would be a "real" total loss system - at least for a while. :-)

My bad, I don't notice the heading most times as I am reading all of the posts from the "most recent" tab.

Thanks, Randy - RPM
