  1. That is what I did, except i put the ground on the coil ground. There is not an ignition on this bike. I will try to just connect it to the frame and see what happens. Thanks!
  2. Ok, so still working on this 75 mx400. I couldn't get the bike to start up at first, and determined the guy who owned it before me hooked up the kill switch wrong. I cut the switch and voila! Fired right up. Only problem now is no way to kill (besides the obvious stuff). I bought a new switch, and hooked it up. Now, once again no start up. I cut the wire again and it started up like it should. Diagnosis? The CDI is very old and pretty nasty. Could it be something in there? Any thoughts of course are appreciated! Thanks for your help.
  3. I'm trying to get the screw adjuster off, (never heard of it). If you look at this diagram, it is number 23 on the clutch diagram. It won't just turn like a regular screw. Is there some kind of trick to this type of screw? Hopefully it is something easy that I haven't tried. Also, I'm trying to get off the big bolt, Number 10 on the same diagram. It is on like a son of a gun. Suggestions? Thanks for your help. Link below: http://www.bikebandit.com/houseofmotorcycl...0b-1975/o/m7402
  4. I'm trying to get this 75 mx400 up and running around, but need a couple parts. Besides ebay, where is the best and cheapest place to order online? Thx in advance.
  5. Thank you so much, I will try this and see what happens! Happy 4th of July!
  6. No, this is when it is not running. If it was while running, it would be down the street! I'm just not sure where to start. Like I said, I tried to just adjust the clutch cable, but it was not good enough. The problem is down underneath the motor I fear.
  7. I'm a newb to being a motorcycle mechanic and could use some advice. I got a dt400 and have gotten it running. the problem is the clutch. I can get it into gear, but the clutch won't go in all the way to disengage. (for example, I can put into first gear, but when I engage the clutch the bike still won't roll freely). I tried to just adjust the cable, but still not good enough. Any suggestions? Thanks!
