Swedish xs400 bobber done.
Hi gang!
I'm from Sweden and I just bought a xs400 se 4g5 1982 after reading through this (and the xs650, amongst others) board. It has just under 30k miles on it an runs strong so I think it will make a good start for my build.
I'm going to try and turn this puppy into a bobber/trial mix. I've been kicking this idea around for a while now, and found the perfect bike for it.
Here she is as of this afternoon:
I've found a ton of valuble information here (and on the "sister" board). The write up on troubleshooting on this board is fenomenal. I have some slight charging issues, but I now have a good idea of how to try and fix that..
So, this is me, introducing my self (and my bike). I'll try and post pictures as I go along building/chopping/cutting this one up.
Stabler - out.
