Its all good down this way Muzz.....catching up on jobs around the place over winter. the bees'll start buzzing soon.
Had the 4hundy apart doing the swingarm etc & I have just done the valve clearances which was a first for me.....your posts on TT were helpful.
Put a Motoz hybrid on it, but the Jury is still out to lunch about that choice....
Yeah I liked the look of the disk one too, but she who must be obeyed has deemed it that I must fix up the TLR & Spada before I go getting another one....
The Heart is the drum keeping time for everyone....
Yeah, do it sometime....the loggers have put in quite a few kms of track right next door at huge expense, for our use

I have 2 34mm round slide carbs , both from '79-82 XL500's. neither have a pump.
different markets seem to have different carbs. possibly due to the (then) new Californian Emmision Rules??
one of your links shows a twinshock but states 32mmCV carb, the other is an '83 model (which also sported a weird reed valve on the inlet side. )
clymer/Haines often show different stuff too,,
All I know is I want 2 roundslide 36mm non-pump XR500 carbs.
