HI Guys, New to this forum and this bike, but Hey, it is a motorcycle and I ani't new to them. I am trying to help a college kid with his 82 XS400. Runs great sitting still, but riding, it will just die. Battery is good because the lights, etc are still on. It died on me last night, and I pulled over, cranked on the starter a while, and it eventually started right back up. I had only ridden maybe a mile or so. Took it back to the guys house, and started tinkering, but ran out of time and needed more tools. I am gonna try to go back tonight with more tools, but I would like to have a heads up if I can as to where to start looking. It quits suddenly, no sputter or anything, so to me it points to electrical, and not fuel. Anyone ran into this? Thanx guys in advance for the help.
