DK there are loads of info here on xs400 cafe racers as well as pictures. have a look around the forum and please ask about specific things and we'll do our best to answer. drewps

I think there was a specific master cylinder for this bike with extra angled mount to level the cylinder. sounds like there is air in the system for the lever to pull back like that. if the xs650 has similar bars and is single disk, then you should be ok with that. drewps

that's not too bad 13.5 volts, it is charging. what is the problem exactly? maybe need a new battery if its not holding a charge!

don't forget to keep the BS number on the can or it will fail the MOT!! I'm sure you won't be too "baffled" with the next stage

jay why are you worried about an overflow pipe. the issue here is you have a fuel leak and its usually down to float valve wear or crap in the fuel preventing a seal! either wy you MAY get away with tapping the carb body to seat the valve, failing that you need to strip the carbs down and replace the valves. Get the kits from when donw ensure you have fitted an inline fuel filter, those are easier to change than stripping carbs! drewps

have you tried yamaha? granby's, or fowlers will tel you. if you have the part numbers then that will simplify things drewps

yamaha service manual says the same thing. i'd just go between those figs say 47lbs ft drewps

i'd look at the battery as these have a short life. you may get 12v but its the amps you need. best way to check its taking a charge, is to rev the bike at 3k and put a multimeter on the battery terminals. you should be getting 13 to 14 half volts!! other than that there is a charging issue or the battery is kaputt!

power was revealed to me the day I held aloft my magic sword and said... I AM THE POWER!!!............but my bike didn't have the power

this is addictive and i just spent an hour on it very good evacuation game

vulva necklaces,Apparently they're some kind of female self-empowerment thing, and not an ideal gift for the creepy serial killer in your life.

V nice

just need to put a flat screwdiver in the "split" to open up and it should just push in. all sohc xs400 are 34mm as far as I am aware!!

to the forum you don't say in your profile where you are from!! USA speedsport ( yamahatopdog), bike barn, partsnmore, motogrid europe cmnsl, granby's, motoward, fowlers and of course ebay drewps

you need to check yamahatopdog ( speed sport) for parts, but you'll find it easier with parts numbers

I use Bob Heath visor spray, no probs there!!

Yep. arrow forward and torqued to 7lbs ft ( 10 nm) in cross pattern. mines never leaked there ( elswhere is a differnt story )

some faves of mine and i posted a racer in the video section which was LOUD!!
