Hello forum. I was just given a 1978 xs400. It runs OK and needs some help but to get around town with a little work I think it will be a fun bike. I have owned other bikes but never this old but I have done some maintenance before. My first question it this. The oil drain plug was severely striped by the previous owner so I tried to get it off with vise grips which only further destroyed the bolt. So just to make sure the drain plug isn't counter threaded on the 1978 model is it? This bolt is very stuck! Any ideas on how to get it out and how to get another plug once out?
