figured i would check in. i managed to pick up an 81 xs400s last year for a mere $300!!!
turns out the guy didnt know what he had....all the chrome is in beautiful shape...it runs but not great...the carb boots are shot. got new ones comming.
and its only got 6200 original miles on it. it was dropped at a stop sign so it has some minor damage but the tank and plastics are still there. its got a mini crash cage on it too.
my plan is to get it back to road worthy shape and its a starter bike for the wife.
ive since added a set of yamaha yz490 handle bars since the goofy rams horn bars sucked...
hopefully i can do a write up on a charging system conversion in the next few months
