Hey, new to the site, I recently just purchased an 83 XS400K a few weeks ago and this is what it looked like after it was dropped off
Needs a little TLC
Got the tank and seat off, quite a few parts missing, side covers, rear tail light and rear side markers, no ignition and a few others.
Close up of the side, rusty exhaust
Close up of headlight mess
Original KMs?
Crystallized brake fluid
Not sure what this part is. It was sitting on top of the engine.
Side pic with rear parts removed
Exhaust removed
Where I am currently with the bike, the plan is to take it down the frame and powder coat the frame. I don't know if the engine runs. There was no fuel in the tank and no oil in the engine so I think it's been sitting for few years, I hope to redo the engine as well eventually. I have some plans for it but I'm still mostly undecided on the final product, but it's a work in progress. Thanks for checking it out. I'll try to keep posting my progress on here. I'm sure I'll have loads of questions.
