dunno where you are dude, but in the uk the best source of parts and info is a company called Halco - they´ll rebuild your engine, bore it out if you want and generally make it kick ass. go to www.halco.co.uk - they´ve got stacks of spares and manuals and goodies.. enjoy yer XS - i´ve had mine for nine years and its the most unreliable piece of crap i´ve ever owned. its also the best motorcycle i´ve ever owned and i will never part with it! fab bike cool as flip and stylish as hell... engineering is great, but the electrics are rubbish. starter motor clutch tends to disentegrate and the carb diaphragms develop holes, which causes v lumpy running
