    1980 something Yamaha XS 400

    I am selling off some shit. I would like 500 cash for it. It's not pretty. It's a rat bike. It is loud, rusted and ugly. It runs, it drives, and it is a frikin blast to ride. It's a 1980 something not sure of the year and they just registered it as an 80. I have had this bike for about 8 years now. I ride it everywhere. I used to commute from manchester to boston on it. it is very reliable. It has been hacked together a little bit. It definatley needs someone who is mechanically enclined to keep her going. The electrical system is a mess it has all kinds of crazy fuses behind the headlight.

    The triples are a little tweaked. Some old lady hit it. It rides just fine.

    It can be seen in manchester nh. $500 or a trade for something cool. Like a 50 cal muzzleloader.

    A potential street flat tracker? Street cafe racer? USCRA?

    It's a good ride to get you around, and very comfortable. It even looks like it's been washed.

    It's all water under the bridge, and we do enter the next round-robin. Am I wrong?

    I have never washed it with soap and water.

    Sheppo something cool would be 300 dollars cash or maybe a muzzleloader.
