I have a 1977 XS400 and am new to the MC world so any help would be greatly appreciated. I am currently having 3 issues:
1. When I hit 7K RPM's and above my engine misfires a good amount but it still has a good amount of power. Although, when I ride on the highway at 7-8K RPM's I don't hear it misfire.
2. When I decelerate especially while in gear and/or engine breaking my engine backfires.
3. Sometimes when I go to shift into 6th it goes into neutral or will engage and when I accelerate will slip out into neutral. Along these same lines I often times come up to a stop light and won't be able to shift down into first or neutral. I'll have to slightly let the clutch out to right where it starts to engage then I'll hear a "click" and I'll be able to get it down into first.
I am new to MC's but eager to learn so any help and as much detail and explanation as possible will be greatly valued. Thanks for your time.
