pepperami Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 Good afternoon i`ve just come to this site after becoming the proud owner of a tatty old XS400!!.. it may be tatty , but i really like it. i am doing it up to ride next year, hopefuly? i did all the usual things in my youth, like owning a LC and a variety of mopeds. hopefuly i can add to the forums without stepping on any toes, and i might learn a thing or two also.

pepperami Posted December 3, 2009 Author Share Posted December 3, 2009 thank you folks for the welcome... yes i confess to being an LC rider in my youth!!! mine started life as a 250 and got heavily modified = opened reed stops, polished & gas flowed, stage 1 tune, re-jetted rear-sets, clip-ons, fork brace, ect ect. and it went like stink and it never let me down as for the XS, i am looking to put a teardrop tank on it along with a shorter 2-1 exhaust, single seat, and wire spoked wheels.... but this is the hard part, (trying to get bits to match) . it is already a runner and could be ready for an MOT in a few weeks, but i want it to go to it`s MOT as a flat tracker so there can be no complaints from plod when i eventully get out on the road with it!!
