Hi
I bought my first bike, XS400 1980.
I have problems with kickstarter not hooking. Few weeks back I took it apart and reassembled following youtube vid (
). I got it working but moved the bike few times over the weeks. Today tried if it still works, but wasn't hooking again.

When I put it in I didn't have the inside washer that the video shows, but still assembled it. Does 1980 XS400 has this washer? I don't know if I lost it or didn't have it in at all. Looked everywhere, but couldn't find it, hope I didn't lose it inside the engine :unsure: Maybe someone can tell me if 1980 has the washer or not. And if it needs, what is the size, maybe I can find new.
 
Yes. I have found these myself, but they don't sell this washer separately (part 10 on the last link)
If someone knows the dimensions, maybe I can make new one.
And because I live in north Europe, it will take from few weeks to months to ship it.
