    Ball and spring left over after carb rebuild.

    Wow. Not sure how this happened. It's been a couple years since I last rebuilt these and I don't remember seeing this ball and spring. I found them on the catch paper after I reassembled my carbs. Any idea where these are supposed to go? The bike is an '81 with the round brass floats...

    Wanted - Speedo cable for 81 XS400 Special II

    I can't seem to find one anywhere. Never seem to find one on eBay. The one I need is from the Special 2 (plugs into front drum brake). Any other thoughts where I could find one?

    Run 4 Your Life 2012 (Ohio-Indiana)

    There seems to be quite a few xs400 brothers in the Ohio/Indiana area so I thought I'd let you know about a 3 day ride called Run 4 Your Life. It's set up and run by the guys at Bobbertalk.com. They have a lot of guys in the area as well and have an annual ride organized. It usually takes...

    xs400 build - Double Aught Apparel shop bike

    Hey duders. I have been wanting to build a vintage daily rider and have been looking for something with a classic vintage look to it. I also wanted it to have an aircooled vertical twin, chain drive, and spoked wheels. I came across an old Yamaha xs400 with only 7k miles on it. It even has...

    Lace a 21" rim to the front hub?

    Hey duders. I am about to start on an xs400 project. I've got an 81 xs400 Special II, so I have the spoke rims (not mags) but they are 18" front and 16" rear. I'd really like to have 21" front and 18" rear. I'm sure I can come across an 18" rear from another xs400, but I was wondering if...
