I am a 55 year old grandmother and have recently purchased a 1979 XSF 400. I bought this from my youngest son. He bought it when he was about 15 years old and held on to it for some time. He is now 27. He was the 3rd owner. I felt compelled to buy this bike because my first REAL motorcycle was a 1978 400 XSE. Lack of time and responsibilities forced me to sell that bike. When this one became available, I had to revisit my youth and make the plunge. It didn't take owning this long before I remembered all the gremlins you refer to. Hard to start, brakes that stick............ I still love it though.
