I have a tank off a 82 Seca that is rough shape, but as I searched for a replacement, I found they are hard to come by. So if you need one, I will give this one away. It had many Pin holes and I used an epoxy sealer to try and fix it. After a few months it leaked again. I took my replacement to...

So the past couple rides I have heard a whining noise coming from the front end. I believe it is from the front tire and likely either the wheel bearing or the speed sensor. I have ordered new bearings, is there any tricks I should know for replacing them? Any special tools? Or is this pretty...

So last week I left the petcock on prime and gas got in the case. I put new needles and seats in the carbs, gave them a good clean and put them back in. One ride later, it's running like crap. It won't start with the choke on and it's bogging in the midrange. It also seems the gas is always...

I have ordered a new clutch and a seal for the push rod, as mine is leaking. I have looked through the manual and the forum, but can see an answer to my question. Is the seal replaced on the clutch side or from the push rod side? Even the parts diagrams don't really show where it is exactly.

Ok, so to pass my safety inspection the sidestand switch must function as intended. I found out when I took it in for the safety that it didn't. I thought no big deal, maybe it's the relay or the switch itself. I checked the continuity at the wiring harness and then to the relay, seemed to...

82 Seca 400 So I thought the bike was all ready for a safety check so I can get it on the road, but........ I found today that when the brake light is on, the turn signals stop flashing. WTF? I have checked all the wiring, looks good and they flash when the brake light isn't on. Happens with...

Hey folks, I am looking to buy new tires, as I don't think mine will pass a safety. Has anyone purchased tires from Canada's Motorcycle? http://www.canadasmotorcycle.ca/ I am looking specifically at the Kenda tires they have on there...

No longer required, thanks for looking. Here is what I'm looking for:

I thought I'd start a project thread to keep all my questions in one place. I'll throw a pic up later, can't do it from this app. I acquired an abandoned 1982 Seca 400. My mother bought a storage barn 6 years ago and it was in it. No one has come to claim it, so now it's mine. I don't plan too...

Hey folks, I am starting to assemble an 82 Seca 400 and have hit my first roadblock. The 3 white wires coming off the generator, I know they go to the wire harness with the other 3 white wires, but some moron removed the harness from the 3 coming from the generator. Does it matter which white...

Hey there, just stumbled upon this forum while searching for the XS400RJ. I have just acquired an 1982 Seca 400 that is currently partially disassembled. It was left in a barn that my mother purchase 5 years ago and no one has claimed it. So by the rule of law, it is now hers. She gave it...
