1980 Yamaha XS400 Special Only firing on one cylinder
the xs400 carbs need a real good clean as they are old and finicky buggers. try unscewing the pilot mix screw 3.5 turns from bottom, this seems to offset the shite liquid which passes for fuel today! by carb clean I mean stripped down, everything spotless. does look like it has rust in the carbs before the filter fit?, also the float hight needs checking (26mm top of float to under bowl gasket)

1980 Yamaha XS400 Special Only firing on one cylinder
what exactly did you do to the carbs? maybe gas cap air hole blockage? rust in the fuel tank, running an inline filter?
-
XS 250 Running issues?
fuel tank could be corroded letting rust dust into the carbs and bocking them. The air hole in the fuel cap could be blocked or the float height is incorrect (haynes is wrong, it should be 26mm not 32mm)

swingarms can be done with the frame and may be free (is at triple s) so its worth getting all your stuff done at the same time, especially if its the same colour

Reducing Vibration
try timing the engine, balancing the carbs.

Starter not turning motor
starter clutch rollers have squared off. i think they are the same as the xs being on the left hand side

Master cylinder strip down
its buried in there, you need a special plier to get them out, or grind a nail or two and flick the bugger out. two pairs of hands work better
