I've been lurking for a bit now, figured it's time to introduce myself. Names Mike. I'm 30 with 4 small boys under 6. I've been riding sport bikes most of my adult life up until about 3 years ago. Life just got the best of me. I've missed it every day since.
So about a month ago I scored a 1978 xs400 for $300. Running (like poo) and driving, but no title.
It pretty much sat for a month while I dealt with title drama. Got that squared away and this last Monday I started tearing into it. Every night after work for a few hours. Ending the week with a very much ridable bike. Just missing air filters.
the very first thing I did.
Still tons left to do but now I can ride it while I tinker. Drag bars are in the mail along with UNI filters. I actually dig the stock seat, may attempt shaving the foam down a bit, but otherwise the tail will stay relatively stock for now.
Most newbs tend to have at least one question in there post so heres mine. I've seen in multiply post the mention of a "tech" section. Now I've searched for this infamous place with no luck and am seriously doubting its existence.
