1987 Honda XR 600 R Questions & Answers
What is the head bolt tension for
As in rebuilding an engine? It's very important to tension engine bolts to factory standard so you don't crack the engines head or stress the bolts also resulting in warping the head
1987 XR600 stops when hot
Take your carburetor apart , clean it, and inspect the insides. My similar experience found the slow jet in the bottom of the bowl and a previous cleaner having installed the piston spring in the car top incorrectly. Put everything back to the stock settings (air screw). Double check the intake boot for cracks or separation. The problem is probably very simple , but disassembly will be required.
?3rd? gear it slips win power is applied
You should be admired for being able to tear into the guts of this bike, find a problem and fix it. Most guys would back away, and rightfully so if lacking mechanical ability and tools. Strange that only 3rd gear is affected. The only possible thing I can think of is to stick in new fiber clutch plates. The plates have been used for 22 years and thousands of miles. Time to replace them just on the principle of the matter. Post a comment on how things turn out!

How many qt of oil dose the 87xr600 hold.
it holds 2.3 liters of oil,
but you should drain the old oil first for best performance.
the drain plug is on the left side
it is also a good idea to change the air filter,
but if its not too old you can soak it in gas,
when the filter gets old it falls apart.
i have an 85 xr500.
Hi re: Honda xr600r
Check the wiring from the fuse box to the light itself it can be that the wire is loose
The taillight and headlights blow
The charging system is over charging or you are putting the wrong replacement bulb in. My first thought is that the rectifier has burned out or somehow other malfunction. You will also need to check the battery as a malfunction in the rectifier will over charge the battery and actually boil the liquid (acid) out of it.
Want to know what the
Carburetor jet is not adjustable. It has a precise hole size. For richer mixture, replace jet with larger hole.
Dear expert, I just bought
Hi,
Carburettors are notoriously difficult things to balance without the correct tools. I could not advise that you attempt to try this yourself as there are too many possible variations on the fuel mix and manifold vacuum pressure in the carbs.
The only way to balance carbs properly is to use a mercury manometer. The manometer measures intake manifold vacuume pressure and this tool is specifically designed to set the carbs properly. This will have a major effect on the overall performance of your bike.
Take your xr600 to a proper tuning shop and for a small fee they will set the carbs up properly for you. You will notice a major improvement in the bike and you will definitely not regret it!

Honda 500 TRX fa6 has PS on the dash….what does it mean ?
The Power Steering has failed. There has been a factory recall for a suddenly failing electrical steering shaft, that could cause the rider to loose control. This does not have to be your problem but anyhow either the electronics or the pump failed. Error codes or messages usually have to be erased by a simple reset procedure or disconnecting a plug, after repairs are done.
