Hi there
I'm new here, only just got my xs 400 last month. My plan is to make it into a cafe racer, but before i come to that i saw when i first got it that i needed to change the gaskets, no biggie, it was missing it's kickstarted axle too so i thought i might as well add that while i was at it. Then this morning when i took the right cover of i saw the bracket thing, where the axle is attached too inside the motor, was broken
Now i'm wondering if i can switch the bottom part of the motor with an other xs 400 motor i got with the bike?
The bike is a XS 400 Special from 81', the motor has been swapped for a XS 400 1979 3N7 motor, the original XS 400 4G5 81' motor came along.
Now the question is can i take the cylinders and that stuff from the 3N7 motor, which is slightly bigger (391 ccm in 3N7 and 386 ccm in the 4G5) on top of the 4G5 motor which bracket is still intact???
and my plans for the bike:
