I now it's nearing the end of the riding season but again I am offering my 2 1980 XS400's for sale. 1 I was driving till about 2 years ago & another near complete for parts. I'm asking $700 for them as a package. The 1 I was driving would be a reliable driver with a good carb cleaning & tires...
I can understand that. Lately I've been into old small tractors. A motorcycle is a fun thing to play with for me but I need to be more practical & well an antique tractor I can put to work & then play at the Threshing shows. She still doesn't see the usefulness. ( likely because I have to...
Been a long time since I'd visited the site Sorry!! Yep the bikes are still here. Did you find something for your friend yet? I'll try to visit the site more often for a while. Let me know!!!!!
Yep. They're sitting in the garage waiting. I do have someone from this site possibly interested but has a few personals to deal with first. After I hear from him they may go back up.
I'm sure I may be jumping to conclusions but PLEASE tell me you didn't tightly seat your needles!! You should only turn them till you feel them litely seated with the springs installed. Then gently back them out 2.5 turns. This will get you in the ball park. The needles are delicate & will seat...
There's a few members near by that I'd like to see these go to. The driver is really a fun ride I was going to build a sort of flat black stealthy sleeper with some WW2 nose art on the tank. But with things being as they are priorities have changed and they're taking up space. Unfortunately They...
Thought I'd offer my bikes here first. I have 2 1980 XS400's 1 parts bike & 1 I've been riding till the last couple years. Neither has a title The rider has been licensed in my name and could be titled with a bonded title in Mn. The parts bike could be easily titled in Mn with 4-5 pictures of...
Thanks Chris So far this is just thinking out loud. Seems like it's a pretty solid bike sight un seen with the mentioned issues. Another thing is this bike has a Clean title where I've been driving mine with a nonexistent title from S Dakota who will not release the info I need. As well as being...
Just a thought right now. Surfing on Facebook I found a 73 TX650 near me. Here's the issues. I have 2 XS400's 1 parts bike worthy of building as a custom or tracker. Thing is the TX needs front end work along with Gages & cables. Would the fork & Gage set fit from the 80 XS400 onto the 73 TX650...
Looks like the same as my bikes. Both are 80 XS400G's 1 is for parts. Like NHM said Carbs Clean em & learn their quirks. They're not really hard but as I found out the can be temperamental. Those Diafram's are SPENDY and most likely your fuse box is in rough shape like mine were. There's a good...
Not 1 to rub noses in my good fortune but that E10 shit is still around 2.79 here & with my gas card it's a dime less. 1 good thing with the gas card I have is I can also use it to buy nonoxy for the garden tractor & bikes. (got the card when we bought the new as car a dealer promotion).
I have an 80 XS 400 that I take down a few dirt roads. My thoughts are with better aggressive tires & a taller stance it would be a Wannabe!!!! Want to be a crossover bike. Not that it wouldn't be a fair crossover bike but at best it's still a compromise. A fairly good compromise. I'd also...
Yours looks similar to where I want to go with my 80 XS400. Mine has been stalled the past couple years because of other priorities but I'm starting to get back to the project. Personally if you're not going back to stock I'd continue dechromeing with flat black and use Heavy truck bed paint on...
Not sure the rising cost of fuel has as much to do with political parties as much as it has to do with supply demand & the need for oil executives to buy that new plane!! Not to mention that in my opinion ALL the oil companies have been colluding with each other for decades & paying their legal...
