Just wondering what everyone else has put into their bike. I know the book says around 2.5quart, but I know the book has been wrong about a few things.

I've been asking for a lot of help lately, it is for a good cause. I took apart my carbs today to see what was wrong. One of the floats was sticking, which i resolved. I put everything back together. Now when I try to start the bike, every so often I think it starts I hear a loud clank from...

Can someone enlighten me please. 1980 400, do I have contact points? I checked above the left spark plug, and in the enclosure is a black banana shaped object.

I was working on the speedometer and tachometer, switched out the bulbs with LEDs. 've just gotten the bike working after some other issues with the coils. But now the tachometer is not as responsive, when idling. Tomorrow I am going to take it out for a test ride, if it doesn't look like...

Hey guys, I had to replace one of my coils, so I did both to keep them current (no pun intended, take him away keyboard cat!). I bought a pair of these from MikeXS So now when hooking them up, as everyone knows on the bike there is red-white/black, and orange/black. The new coils have...

Does anyone use PVC for fuel lines? I have some that is rated at high temp and such, but before the filter it is now yellow instead of clear. I want to replace it sooner than later if needed.

I have an extra set of handlebars and a grab bar for sale. I tried painting the handlebars black, just don't have time to remove the paint. The grab bar is pretty clean, I bought it cause I painted mine black, but then needed to use the luggage rack. Just let me know a zip code for shipping.

Can someone confirm this is the ground point on the bike. I hooked the voltmeter negative up to it to ground.

Hey guys, here's a new one.:confused: Yesterday the bike had trouble running, like I'd open throttle and it would barely accelerate, and it sounded like it was struggling to increase RPMs. It would be on and off like that, and it stalled once. So I figured I was low on gas, since I couldn't...

Has anyone ever added a voltmeter to their bike? I'm looking at possible locations to hook up without going directly on the battery. My first thought was maybe going off the fuse block by itself but I don't think that would work well. My next thought would be to connected to the master...

Question for you guys. I had the carbs cleaned over the winter. Is there any additive I should be using in addition to that will clean/improve the engine itself? And will the additives work with a fuel filter?

Does anyone have an extra one of these stoppers?

Hey guys, So I finally had the carbs put back on and took the bike out for my first day of the season. For some reason if I have the petcock on "on" or "res" it won't fuel the engine. If I switch to "pri" it works fine. Is there something I can check out to see what the issue is, or is...

Here's the deal. I got the seat cover for Christmas. The store said it would fit an xs400, but it actually is for an xs650. The seat cover will not fit my bike. Before I go through with a return for credit, I wanted to see if anyone had a new seat cover for a 1980 xs400 that would want to...

Anyone here know a decently low cost place in MA that will paint a tank and side panels?

Has anyone successfully installed a fuel guage on an xs400? Is it even worth doing? I have the bike apart for the winter for cleaning and storage, so I want to get as much done as I can.
