Hi guys,
I brought an early x400 last year but never really got it running right and i'm kind of losing the will to live!
Pic here for attention...
The bike has never been able to start without a healthy squirt of easy start. So I know theres something wrong there. These are the carbs that its running - which to my research I dont think are factor fitted? Anyone know what they might be?
Iv also noticed that (I assume) is the fill for prime is just wide open and will be sucking in air. Indicated here as ref 1 - am I correct? The petcock fitted on the bike doesnt have a prime.
I would be so grateful is some XS Wizard out there could confirm my suspicions and let me know if you think its worth trying to get a petcock that will accommodate the prime on the carbs or if I should just block that up to stop the air messing with the mixture.
A million thanks!
