    For Sale - 77-78 xs400 part out

    Hey every one. I apologize for not getting back to some of you on a timely manner. At this time I am no longer parting the bike out. In talks of the selling the bike as a whole. If that falls thru I'll be stripping it down and selling everything I don't need.
