    Idle Mix Plugs Stuck

    Update: multiple drill bits and screws later and I was finally able to get the plugs out. The settings were very strange though...#1 was 1.5 and #2 was 2.6. The screws don't seem to be loose. Anything I should be double checking?

    Idle Mix Plugs Stuck

    Greetings all, I’ve been unsuccessful in the drilling method of removing the factory idle mix plugs despite reading all the forum commentary and miscellaneous guides out there. On the #1 carb it actually sank a bit deeper, and on the #2 the screw to pull it out just won’t bite strongly enough...

    CB360 front wheel on an XS400?

    Wrong. My question is if the particular wheel would work. A helpful response is “Yes, if A, B, and C.” Or “No, unless you also had A, B, and C.” But nice try.

    CB360 front wheel on an XS400?

    That's unhelpful. I have XS400 forks from a disc brake model, as well as a disc, brake lines, and a master cylinder. I am looking for a wheel and information about a wheel only, hence asking if this particular wheel shares the same spindle diameter and thus would be an easy fit. Plenty of...

    CB360 front wheel on an XS400?

    I searched, couldn't find anything... would the front wheel from a '75 CB360 swap onto the 81 XS400 for a disc conversion??? It looks like the CB360 has a 15mm spindle same as the 400. Anyone have any insight? Thanks in advance!

    81 XS400 RH Handlebar Switch...Brown??

    Checked everything, spliced together, installed the new control and as soon as I reconnected the battery it was dead. Only throwing ~3V. Charged all night, only came up to ~9. I thought the battery was brand new when I picked up the bike a couple months ago. If I have to get a new one...

    81 XS400 RH Handlebar Switch...Brown??

    Greetings all, Ordered the RH Handlebar switch with a part that said it was compatible but in my OEM housing both Killswitch wires are R/W. On the replacement the (internal) right-side Killswitch wire is brown. Everything else is the same inside. The Replacement Female plug (white) is...

    Whirring Noise After Turning Bike OFF

    Definitely coming from inside. The noise didnt happen under after I switched the engine off and it is like a delayed "winding down" that only lasts a second or so after I cut the engine. The button popped out, so the spring behind it is there, but the part you would push to e-start is missing.

    Whirring Noise After Turning Bike OFF

    Greetings all, I've searched but not found any post about a loud medium-tone whirring noise after turning the engine OFF. 81 XS400H purchased recently, sat for a while but starts up on the 1st or 2nd kick. Yesterday as I was riding the normal engine noise seemed to get an octave louder and...
