tracker

just browsing my hard drive at work and found another original picture of the tracker. Its interesting as it was taken in the former part store department at the ROF.

I bought my xs about 3 months ago, for about 300$. The guy I bought the bike from started to buy parts to make a custom out of it, and I kinda continued in the same style that he wanted. I'm gonna start with just some pictures that was taken from start until now, then update when I do...

Hello all, Thought this video might pump you up for the riding months ahead. http://vimeo.com/19061363

Hi. Thought I would share my rebuild experience. I hope in this tread I can share a small amount of my 'trial and error' knowledge seeing as this site has already given me so much knowledge. My name is Rob I am a physics student and I love tearing things apart and hopefully putting things back...

Howdy, My son traded a mud truck with a blown engine for this thing awhile back and then got into debt with dad here...so I let him give me the bike (which was sitting at my house anyway...in the front yard with the front tire and rim off because it had a flat tire)...to wipe away some of his...

Hi All, This week i was lucky enough to buy and 79 XS400 that's been posted about on the forum before http://www.xs400.com/forum/showthread.php?t=6987 and has had the beginnings of a flat tracker customization started on it. I'm really wanting to continue to develop that look on the bike and...

I see chippi is selling his 400 unfinished tracker, shame really is was looking good :shrug: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170794918587&ssPageName=ADME:B:SS:GB:1123

Hey everyone, I just bought me a 82 XS400 a couple of weeks ago. No title, no front wheel, no handlebars, no controls, no seat, no fenders, no front brakes. . . Perfect for a flat track race bike. Been pulling off relays, flashers, kickstand kill switches, and other fluff. I have spark...

http://www.pipeburn.com/home/2012/2/21/1976-yamaha-xs360-bombshell-customs.html WOW, all I can say is WOW! To quote the creator "It was like a bobber fucked a cafe racer and gave birth to a boardtracker - or something like that."

Picked this lil beauty up from Redmax yesterday and took it out for its maiden voyage today. Rode up to Box Hill and although the brakes are totally crap it felt really nice, light, nimble and comfy (although the rear shocks are very firm). Unfortunately about 5 miles from Box it...

I know that XS400's are rare in Oz but check out the buy-it-now price on this bike. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/YAMAHA-XS400-1978-street-tracker-cafe-racer-lams-approved-/150758568367?pt=AU_Motorcycles&hash=item2319e931af :yikes:

Picked up an '82 XS today after looking and researching for about 2 weeks. First, a little background on me: 22yo certified body man from British Columbia (Vancouver). Never owned a street bike before, only dirt bikes (all Yammies! Still own an 07 YZ250F). And here is my new baby...

just seen this on eBay. Its built by Redmax speed shop in the UK. They sell good parts as I have their fuel cap on my tracker. don't like the 16" rear wheel as it makes the back end very long what do you guy's think?

So, I bought a pair of XS400's for a pretty solid price. Here's the catch - they're in boxes. So I'm going to make a cafe racer, and figure out the other bike later (possibly just part out) The '79 frame is slightly modified. Most tabs were cut off, etc. The guy had planned to make it into...

Hey guy's I'm a college student who ones a xs400 for school and just picked up a 650 (non-running) for a hundred bucks! The bike is in excellent condition and I think will not run due to varnished gas in the carbs. But now that I have two bikes I want to turn one of the bikes into a cafe/tracker...

New member, hows it going everyone? Just finishing up the last few things on my 78.....changed my mind a few times on a few diff things but in the end im happy where the bike went. Fun bike, super light! Sounds pissed too. :bike:

So about 30 years ago i sold my XS and gave up riding. (crazy right?) Finally in '09 i came to my senses and got back on 2 wheels. First on scooters and then with a couple of Kawasaki's. But the whole time i've wished for my old XS back. Well, today i picked up my project that i...

well I borrowed a friends camera yesterday and spent most of today editing. here at last is my video of the tracker taking in the ROF facory where I shot the pictures and some nice UK B class roads where these bikes excel. :bike: can anyone hear any sound? :wtf:

Just thought I'd share my final settings for my tracker, which I've finally got sorted; shortened 2 in 1 exhaust with 2.5" baffle DOHC carbs fitted to sohc engine and narrowed to fit emgo filters using intake tubes float height right side = 21.16mm left side = 21.51 pilot # 50 with 1.5...

Hi just come across this site and thought I'd say hello. I own an early 80's XS250 se that I'm currently converting to a street tracker. This is it so far!
