Hi ! All
I purchased a rather sad xs 400 se 1980 in november 13 and have spent the winter working to restore the old girl as near to original as possible.
On Saturday I got her started for the first time and she seems to run o.k.
My question is are all the clutches prone to rattle a bit I am waiting for a new clutch cable to arrive so don't know at this stage if clutch actually works but when I had the right hand side engine cover off I tried it then and the plates separated alright.
Any clues would be helpful as I don,t want to put it all together to take apart again, and I have spotted a complete clutch assembly on ebay and am wondering if I should buy it.
I will post some before and after photo's asap.
