help me identify

Hey y'all! I have an all-stock 1977 XS360 that is having power issues on the right cylinder that is causing idle issues when coming down from speed (dying at stop lights if I don't keep revved up, but easy kick to start back up; erratic idle when warm). The right cylinder runs way colder than...

Just got the bike a few weeks ago, was riding it yesterday and noticed as I coast to a stop the bike makes a high pitch noise. Any ideas? Thanks The bike is a Maxim 400 1983

Okay to start off I just want to let everyone know that I am brand spanking new to motorcycles but I am fairly mechanically savvy. So to start, I bought the motorcycle a couple weeks ago thinking that it ran perfectly, which it did for the 15 minutes they had it running, but after the paperwork...

I recently purchase a 1980 xs400 with fairly low miles and very clean body. The battery would never hold a charge longer then a few days. Upon inspection I noticed there was two leads on the positive terminal. So I unhooked the one that I assumed was aftermarket and now my battery holds a...
