  1. i have a 1984 400 maxim. This is my first bike and I am having a hard time stating it in cold weather. Any tips would be helpful.

    hi i live in canada and on those cold fall mornings all i do is close the choke completly and kick away dont touch the trottle they flood very easy it allways works for me good luck

  2. Noob here. I'm about to buy a 96 Virago 750, hopefully tomorrow (fingers crossed). can't wait to get back on 2 wheels.

    hey its great being back on bikes i just got back at it myself this year i cant believe i let my wife keep me off them for so long but its like i never stopped at all so enjoy!!!

  3. no problem mate, just don't understand the logic in it, all oils will deteriorate/rub/wash off in time and expose the metal underneath. If I apply wd40 would i have a permenate cloud following me as its attracted to the fluid?

    I personnaly use ACF50

    hey guys i have heard the same about wd-40 it does attact moisture and should only be used as a peitating oil not a lube a good example is if you se it on lug nuts on your car the next time you try to pull the wheels off the lugs are rusty ive done it myself have a good one guys and happy biking!!!!

  4. nope checked that

    hi guys just wanted to let you know i got my bike running last night the main fuse that i must have meter tested 10 times

    was loose on one end so when metered it tested ok but would not let power through when in place tricky little devil

    thanks for the help !

  5. I have a 1981 xs 400 and recently lost my keys to it. While replacing the ignition was easy the question is now how do I get the locking gas tank cap off. Is this possible or is getting the gas cap re-keyed a possibility????

    thanks

    hi i just had my 79 xs 400 cap picked and rekeyed for 45 buck it only took about an hour

  6. hi guys i have a new problem with with my 79 xs 400 i went to start it after work today turned on the key the oil

    and neutral light came on and as i turned out the kick starter the lights dropped out and i cant find a problem
