Its a long shot but do you still have the seat?

I think the 78 400E must be a little bit of a rare bike, I’ve had 0 luck finding this seat! I may have to try and repair my pan….

Hi, I am looking for a seat for my 1978 XS400E if anyone has one they would like to sell let me know, my pan itself is rusted out! The 78 400E uses a lower profile seat than the 400 special, it looks like this:

I’ve not had an xs400 for years, this 78 popped up for sale a while back down in central WV where we have some property. I took the family down there for the weekend and remembered the XS! I found the guys info and ended meeting up with him. The bike had sat in an old barn for decades. It’s...

Sale pending

Ive listed the entire lot of years of collecting 400D parts, a complete parts bike, spare engine, carbs, totes and boxes full of parts along with a complete restoration project that comes with a clear title. Link to Ebay. Opening price is $1,000 will entertain offers of at least $1,000 for...

Time is too valuable and I have too many other projects so Im considering selling my 1977 XS400D project, it needs assembled and tuned, comes with keys and a clean clear title in my name... The bike was totally strippd, bagged and put in totes. The frame, swing arm and center stand were all...

Decided not to sell it all

I am staring at my new Avon tires and looking at both sets of my 1977 D edition 7 spoke, flat silver stock wheels…They are pretty ugly, no pitting or cracks just showing their age… Has anyone on here had these wheels blasted and powder coated or is it unsafe to put them in an oven to bake on...

This is how I did my last 77, I used an electric carving knife! http://www.bikepics.com/pictures/744012/ I am going to do something similar with the 77D that I’m working on now but will not use piping on the new cover and plan on keeping the rear passenger height even with the rear seat cowl…

Found a 1 owner, 1977D on C List earlier this week, it was an 8 hour round trip to pick it up but it here. Pretty much a parts bike, sadly... less than 7k on the clock, all there with some wicked 70s Shoei hard bags and a sissy bar. The guy I bought it from claims to have found it in a barn...

Bump! I just moved these for the last time, they are now outside, behind my shop in my “to be given to the recycler area”!!! No one is doing a disk to drum conversion that can use a free pair of fork lowers? If not they will be recycled into some nice, fresh beer cans or a Kia or, well...

I’m looking for a clean set of disk brake mag wheels for my 77D. I have a 1979 SOHC XS400 engine that I bought from, what I was told a good running parts bike, “I needed a set of carbs” for yet another project! The carbs are very clean and it seems to have good compression as far as I can...
