Where do I get that? And about how much should I be looking to spend? All I have is a test light... I don't mess with much electrical.

I actually figured it out this morning. It's when I hit my brakes at low rpm it shuts off. It just happened to be when I hit the clutch, the Rpms go down so there fore shutting down. Now I have to figure out why it's sucking all the juice from my power to a point where it shuts down. But I'm...

hey. i have a 1980 sx400. everythings been good on it until yesterday when it started shutting off when i came to a stop. well, after riding it a little more i noticed that you dont have to come to a stop for it to shut down. if you just pull the clutch lever, the rpms go dont to zero and it...

Mine has a 4.60 on it. I found a 4.75 but it wouldnt go on because of the chain. Soo not much bigger....

That is a very nice bike. I paid about the same for mine and it needs a little tlc. But I definately like it! Paint looks great on yours!

Im also new to the bike scene. I took it down the interstate a few days ago on my 1980 xs400 and it cruised fine at 75. Wasnt gunna go much faster though. Rpms were around 6500. Stayed that way for about an hr before I got off and it did great. It was the first time being on the highway on 2...

Ive checked all the fuses I can find. Bike is charging fine. Wheres the flasher relay located?

Sry, its a 1980. Ive basically just taken a voltmeter to the wires on the signals. No voltage at all. Bike on, off, running. The grounds are good. But idk. The headlamp and horn are getting power when I tested them. I was thinking it wouldnt be the switch if they worked. I want to see if im...

hey guys. im pretty new to this forum and ive had a few questions that have been answered and so far all my problems have been solved. i have a new one now. i bought this bike with no turn signals mounted. i have all of them, just have to put them on. but when i went to do this i noticed im not...

I got it going as far as itll go. And the pin goes inyo the groove just barely inside the drum brake to hold it in place so I dont think it would go in any frurther. Idk how long it is exactly. I have to pull it off again amd measure it. Ive just been going off of my tach for awhile now. I gotta...

I can slide the cable through the sleeve back and forth. Cable seems good. Wish it was the cable though

Yea sorry. Its a drum brake with spokes. Didnt kno they came with disk brakes at all.lol but I did prop up the front wheel and spun the tire. No action there. And as far as it.being fully seated, I have it pushed in as far as it will let me. Feels secure. So im guessing im going to be taking the...

Yea now that I blow up the picturre thats exactly what it looks like.

I do believe it does. It pulled right out of.the drum after u take a circular pin out. It was kinda squared off with little grooves spiraled around it.

Ok. Im looking at these pictures and reading the message and im quite skeptical about doing this myself. Now is there anything I can mess up on? Im pretty mechanically inclined but changing this gear drive will be a 1st for me.

Okay, have a new problem now. Yesterday wwhil riding my speedo started jumping around and then just died. I took cable off, and the ends look good. Stuck it back to the speedo amd spun the other n with my fingers and the speedo.wwas workimg alright. So that leaves me to believe its on the other...

I too just bought mine. Bought a week ago. Put about 150 miles on it and loving it. Its my first bike and I think it awrsome. Mine was sitting for a good bit before I got it. Only has 4500 miles but a great bit of rust throughout. I just do a little each day n she'll get there. Will post pics soon.

Hey guys. I recently bought a 1980 xs400 and its in pretty good condition. Just needed tires, lights, etc. wrll I got new tires and I wired up a new tag light. The signals themselves were not attached when I bought it but they came with it. Now Im trying to put them on but I cant find any power...

I have just recently bought a 1980 xs400. Odo has just under 4500 miles. Its my first bike and im enjoying it so far. I havent taken it over 45mph because my rear tire is dry rotted pretty badly. Where can I get a good, decently priced tire for this? Its not the prettiest bike in the world. Sun...
