    '81 SOHC XS won't start

    thanks for the reply yeah that is my next step I think, remove the carbs and test the starter motor by pulling it out, I don't think the battery is the problem I test it when ever I am trying to diagnose the bike the battery is less than 3 months old I make sure that the charges always over 12...

    '81 SOHC XS won't start

    thanks I've tested a lot of wires not all though, it doesn't turn over at all with electric start the solenoid just clicks it will kickstart now start as long as you spray some quickstart into a carb before kicking it over but the electric start button is click click click and nothing at all

    '81 SOHC XS won't start

    bike has had some trouble starting lately, (never a problem warm) was usually able to kick it if electric start didn't work sometimes all i would get is a click from the solenoid or starter rely I would open up bike electronics container (it's a bobber) and usually if I pulled out most of...

    Finally finished my '81 bobber

    Image1 by Travis Lowe posted Jun 25, 2018 at 8:38 PM It took some time and some money but I was finally able to finish my bike off to my vision. I took a lot of inspiration from Fong Brothers designs. I wanted something that echoed a salt flats racer. I would have loved to have done some things...

    Front Wheel

    I stand corrected. the rim is like you said 1.60x18....... it's alloys that are 1.85x18 width of tire will be the same as i am running now ....a 3.00 so it won't rub on the forks it won't hit anything else i don't run a front fender or fork brace why would you worry about running a 21" wheel on...

    Front Wheel

    thanks I'll look into that... I am running a 1.85 x18 upfront now (stock) i'll see what the dt400 rim width is but wouldn't it be the hub width that's important as I am trying to take the entire dt400 front wheel and run the whole thing on the xs400m hub, brake plate and all since the axle...

    Front Wheel

    have '81 SOHC with wire spokes and drum brakes looking to run a 21" upfront. I've read you can swap out a xt500 front wheel easily but does anyone know if you can swap out a '77 dt400 front wheel easily enough? axle size seems to be the same at 15mm but is that all there is to it? thanks
