Hello Ladies and Gents!
I've actually been a member of this forum since it was first announced at XS650.com. I've just been lurking, but now I have an XS400.
The name "The Mule" has a meaning behind it but, for now, it's sort of Top Secret. It will be revealed soon enough.
Today, I hauled home this '77 XS400. The P.O. bought it as not much more than a rolling frame. It's something of a Rat Bike, but it runs pretty darn well (and will soon run even better!).
It was missing the wiring harness, so what's there is very rudimentary. On/Off switch, headlight and tail/brake light.
It's kick only for now, but the starter is there. We'll probably hook up the starter in the near future.
Here are a couple of pics from his build, and one of how it looks today.
