XS400 Enthusiast
Hi All,
I'm Dan, live in the midlands, in Eng UK. Purchased a 1980 xs400 about 6 months ago and have started to build / convert into cafe racer thing. Lots of great info and ideas on hear. It's now slowly coming together, I'll share some pics. Sure I'll get stuck as in the past so will no doubt, shout out for help! I'm an electrician by trade but have very limited motorcycle / mechanical knowledge!
So far...
Engine was vapour cleaned, new gaskets and screws. Checked and valve clearances
Cabs cleaned, require re building
Frame modified and powder coated
Wheels painted
New tyres and rear sets
Wiring .....nearly sorted
Kickstart only
