Hi folks,
Trying to get my bike MOT ready ASAP!! However im having trouble with the indicator. Left works perfectly however at idle the right does not flash at all, it lights up but no flashing, then when I rev the engine it begins to flash... Does anyone know where I should start looking to...
I have this one fitted if I'm planning on riding on any long straight roads, it helps take the wind off my chest and just makes riding less tiring but i do take it off for any other times because i think the bike looks better without. Its a standard slightly smoked screen which i stuck a racing...
Today I fitted a lovely pressed metal plate. Much nicer than the massive plastic ones that are standard in the UK! its reflective yellow and only a little smaller than UK regulation so isn't TOO illegal :P
I went for a ride!!! :O
Great to have a blast through the sunny Scottish countryside, Nice to see a fellow Scot posting before me too! not many XS400's in this neck of the woods!

Went back to the shop to see the painter a few days ago. Although he was over the moon to see the bike together and on the road he had no record of the paint code so it will always be a mystery, sorry! I would recommend the rear light, obviously its not amazing build quality as its cheap and...

So the last few times I have been out it runs fine then about 5 minutes into the ride the bike will start to run really badly, no throttle response, sounds like its only firing on one cylinder then cuts out completely. thats with the petcock on the "on" setting. If i then put it to the "prime"...
Thanks! The whole seat is home made. Took the fixings off the plastic seat pan and put them on a home made wooden base then sculpted some foam for the top and covered it in vinyl. Think the bars are a CB 400, the pods are just like little clutch bags i found on eBay attached to the frame with a...
Hi, hope somebody can help. I was out today on the XS400 and as I slowed at traffic lights the bike cut out. I managed to get it going but a mile or so down the road it did it again. When I got home and removed the plugs they were really sooty and black, the left one slightly more than the...
