Another xs400 bobber.

Got it.

The three White wires go to the rectifier, which wire were is not critical as long as they are on the three inputs.
The Black and Green wires go to the voltage regulator for field control.
The Yellow wire goes to the low oil pressure warning indicator.
The Blue wire goes to the neutral indicator and to the safety circuit (if you are going to have one).

Awesome, thanks for the info. I'm planning on eliminating as much as I can from the wire harness. If the bike can run without it I don't want it lol trying to keep it very minimal

Decided to cut the frame today, now it's just a waiting game

Little up date, my hardtail and gas tank came today. Just mocked up the hardtail, hopefully get to welding Friday after work

 

[Jared salsano]

Quick mock up now that I have the frame together

The tank is from lowbrow customs, they did a really nice job with it. That's a 2.2 gallon and they also have a 2.5 gallon.

Had time over the weekend to get my engine mounted, tank mounted, fender mounted, and started getting my tins prepped for paint. The tank had a few little wrinkles on sides that required a little filler. Also went over the welds to smooth them out nice

Looks good! What front end/wheel did you use?

Thanks, I actually took it off a 96 virago that I have. That's what's left of it.

Nice job robbing the XV to use on the XS. The stance looks perfect.

Thanks man, glad it fit lol just hope the springs aren't too soft

 

[Jared salsano]

Anyone have suggestions for wheel spacers?

Tins primed and ready for paint

Been a while but time for an update for anyone who cares. I guess it's more of showing off than anything. Bike is very close to being finished. Little bit of wiring, waiting on a headlight, linkage for my shifter, and an axle. Gonna sand and buff the tank and get the mounted over the weekend. I've done lots of work, sanding, painting polishing etc. Got a nice custom seat done that I'm very happy with and new whitewall on the rear today.

Tank is done, still have a little more work on the fender. The color is called soul crystal red which is actually a Mazda color

 

[CaptChrome]

That looks pretty sweet!
