Hello,
New to this, but hey ho! Basically my good old Granddad got bored of seeing his completely standard XS400 W-reg sitting in his garage so he gave it to me for my 19th birthday, legend! He gave it to me as a non runner, however I have rebuilt and cleaned the carbs, cleaned out the tank and replaced the battery and fuses, ensuring the connections are strong. Although the old girl doesn't seem to want to fire up very easily, it will go but tries its hardest not to! The sparks are strong and to be honest i'm fast running out of ideas! Any help would be appreciated!
Also I know here in the UK I pretty much cant locate a rear master cylinder repair kit anywhere, so a Brembo one is on its way! Just wondered if anybody made a upgraded disk or twin piston calliper for the front as the brakes are pants!
Thanks alot and any help would be appreciated.
