A reader writes in with a request for info for his XS500 Cafe Build.

“Hello,

I am building a 78 XS500 Cafe but seek guidance from those who have gone before me. Specifically I would like to know what Dean’s Keihin carb jetting setup is on his TX500.
Your post, the one that led me here:

Is there a way to get in touch with Dean other than posting a comment on the blog?

Thanks and kind regards,
Dale”

P.S. for kicks I included a picture of my nearly completed current project
