I want to put white wall tires on my bike. It is a 1981 xs400 with mag wheels. Front wheel has J 18 x MT1.85 written on it and the rear wheel has J 16 x MT2.5 written on it. I have not been able to find any tires to fit that are white walls. Anyone know where to look? It looks like I should have...

Ok so in my adventure to get my 1981 xs400sh street legal I must have fucked up something in the ignition wiring. Currently getting no spark. All my indicators are working and no blown fuses. Where do I start? I replaced and gapped the plugs. My bike is kickstart only as it has a small sealed...

That seams to resolve the problem. now just to trouble shoot why its not starting now.

What did you use to paint your engine. It looks fantastic.

Here is a video of what happens, the turn signal switch currently does nothing. I do have an auto canceler. do you think it might have given up the ghost?

So I am working on restoring a 1981 xs400sh to street legal condition. The guy that used to own it stripped it down to race it and removed all the switches and lights. After hooking up the switches and the lights the turn signals all stay on as long as the bike is on. any ideas?
