So I just got a 82 xs400 2 weeks ago im needing a couple of parts to replace that I can't find and I even went to a Yamaha dealer near by and they said the parts are discontinued. Im needing throttle and choke cable, and front and rear intake boots can anyone point me in the right direction on where I can find these parts. thanks in advance.
 
Ebay worked for me
Just search 1982 yamaha xs 400 maxim throttle or choke cable.
should pop up. just make sure theyll fit your bike
 
You can always make your own cable as well.

I always start with Babbit's or Adept and find the part number... go from there. Sometime's get it from them, other times eBay etc etc.

The only thing to keep in mind about the replica carb holders is that many of them have weakly attached vacuum nipples. I have had them pop out on me.

Easily fixed with some high-tack sealant, but still worth keeping in mind.
