XS400 Addict
Hi everyone, my name is Keith and I just bought a 79 xs400 yesterday for $400 bucks and rode it home (about 13 miles). Has a super high idle around 3500 rpm to 4000 rpm. Tried to adjust that but I firmly believe it needs carb service. Since the electric starter is not working, it is a bugger to kick start and that's only when it starts. Next I went to adjust the rear brake and that was super easy till it locked up and sounds like there is a broken shoe in there. Next it looks like it will need new sprockets and a chain soon. On the good foot I got the horn and indicators working. Already learning lots about these little monsters on here.
Where is the best place to get parts for these things in or around the great North West? Do y'all buy online or dealer? I just want to get it up and running before I make this thing my own. Thanks everyone.
