Clymer or Haynes?? Thanks.
you can't beat the official yamaha service manual. I have 4 haynes and 1 clymer (which i've never used) and generally use the haynes for mucky fingers and writing in, but always refer to the yam for torque settings etc

Rubbing / Binding noise
K'nell, only adjust the chain at its tightest point ie you have to move the wheel and feel the chain to guage where it is. then adjust to that. You'll knacker the output bearing if you load it with a few tons of torque.

U.S. Veteran needs help with 82 XS 400 Maxim
did you try the clutch cable, that can run dry and take a while to return the clutch!! get it oiled up or renewed $300 for a bike! get it for $200 and you can use for parts if no good

xvs 125 (bobber) project
i think you need to put in some more colour keys to balance out the wheels. on the tank maybe? you need a spring seat for that and remove the rear fender mount for somethng less intrusive and use a front fender on the rear to mount your rear lamp setup good start, and keep it up!
