For Sale - 1977 XS400 project bike

[newtothis]

Bought this bike over summer, moved off to school before I had time to get it in riding condition again. Started fine when I had it, but ran on one cylinder.
Needs new piston rings, valve seals, etc.
Previous owner had made this into a scrambler type thing. I was planning on turning it back into a street bike (but ran into the engine problem that I didn't have the time to fix).
Motor is out of the frame, head was removed by a professional and is boxed up so I don't have any pictures of it.
Have boxes of parts too (seat, side covers, mirrors, etc)
Located in Sonoma County, CA. Make me an offer!

Would you be willing to part with the tank?You might be better served selling folks individual parts. Let me know if you want to, I might be interested

 

[jdoco]

Hi this is an old thread but do you still have the tank?

 

[JBoyd]

I may have one for an 82. If that would work. I’ll double check the year if interested.

As long as its a similar tank as your photos, i would be interested. Im not a huge fan of the teardrop tank that i have now.

[JBoyd]

Here are a couple. Tearing the bike apart today so I’ll have some more parts too.

 

[xschris]

Are those scratches or dirt on the tank? Any dents?

 

[JBoyd]

Scratched. A couple dimples on right side. Tried to get a couple snaps of it for ya

 

[clegg]

Do you have the carbs from this?

 

[JBoyd]

Negative. Well, technically i still have them. One is busted up on the inside, rendering it useless. Sorry

 

[clegg]

I just need parts carbs. The emulsion tube is what Im looking for. The part that the main jet screws into.

 

[xschris]

If this don't work out I have lots of them for 77-82 sohc models ( X6-Y2) all 271.

 

[clegg]

Oh, so they are all the same E tube? The carbs from the 77 are a little different but the E tubes look alike.

What do you want for one sent to 63368? Missouri
