Hi every one ,a new guy here. Alot of killer bikes on here!A while back I was given a 79 xs 400 and i just started to work on it. The first order of buisness is to get it up and running, as the former owner did a bit of a butcher job on the electrical harness. I want to make it a kickstart only and found quite a few diagrams that will help,question is will i need a battery (even a very small one) or will this thing be able to fire up and run just the basic electrical componits off just the stator? Will post pics soon of the project and thanks for any help!
