Its all been moved into the seat hump or removed. I removed the pins from the connectors and ran all new wire.

Did you go through-the-frame with the wiring? If not, well done! Very clean

Here is my new baby. She gets delivered next week. Plan is to get her cosmeticly cleaned up over the winter.

I know its a GS400 but i dont know much else about her. Can anyone else tell me anything (things i need to look out for etc?)

Nice clean look. I like it very much.

Where did you hide all of the electrics?

Thats funny becuase my 1978 GS400X has electric start and disc front brake.

Not sure why that is . maybe yours is a GS400xB and mine is GS400XA.. or yours has been modded?? or something like that?
I know that on my handlebar switch pod there is NO place for the starter button, altho there is a cover where the starter usually resides, and believe me.. it's EMPTY IN THERE hahah.
maybe someone more knowledgeable can elaborate?

Seat is complete.

I wish the GS400 kicker would work on my GS500.

Absolutely.. it is a GS400 "X" no electric start.. kick only!! and cheepo front drum.. but it stops just like a disc.. only not if its going backwards.. there AIN'T ANY BRAKES BACKING UP lol

Tom, I didn't know the 400 ever came with a drum front brake. Is it stock?

Great looking bikes (aside from the "L" parts)!

Just picked this up the other day. Needs some work, but it was cheap. For those that are concerned, it will be mostly a restoration.



Oh, and sorry for the crappy cell phone pic in a dark garage.........

Awesome Rich! Glad to see you got her

Just a restoration hey? Nothing out of the ordinary planned? Mind you that paintwork looks in decent shape in that pic and it's all stock...

Got my little 250 last winter and took some time with it.





And my modified 500.

Love 'em both
