Totally jumping the gun here guys but anywhere heres where im at
The Back Story
my dad bought a 1980 XS400 SG for $100 like 5 years ago, ran fine all that good stuff, just didnt have a title (long story not worth typing, the bike isnt stolen lol) they're just harley guys and it was supposed to be a learner bike for my mom. mom doesnt want it, i took it over, recently we pulled it out to look at it to see if i wanted to keep it or sell it. I decided to sell it until i came across this site and saw fubars chopper and thought WOW thats amazing, that came from a yamaha?? NO WAY so i looked deeper and deeper and realized that not only can you make a bad ass bobber out if an xs but its extreamly cheaper than choppin a sporty up to the way id like it.
Where We Stand Today
The xs currently wont stay running, it was running but only on one cylender, until we had a friend look at the carbs. Once he got done playin with the carbs it would no longer stay running, So i bought a pair of carbs which shipped in today.. pulled the tank off and and got everything set up so that tomorrow i can start farting around with carb sync and all that good stuff
Like i said, im jumping the gun but its the first step, Get it running, get a title... DISASSEMBLE!! Pics of stock bike coming soon!!
