Reverse it - maybe I could mount 4 carbs onto my SR500 :)

Today I purchased an inspection sticker and I rode my bike for the first time since getting it back together.  It was for about 15min then it rained.  Wiped it down and here are some crummy cell phone pics

+1 Mike - it looks clean. You know with a rear fender, you can ride it in the rain though? :D
I'm done. I'm beaten. I finally quit. I'm cleaning shop over the next couple weeks. So I'll be getting back to anybody / everybody what I owe.

Well i got a good barn find!! Was exploring a old friends bard when i saw a old dirt bike frame laying to the side. No motor and most of the parts were gone but the carb was left so I snatched it up. Broke them apart and they were clean just some dirt spider webs. Can anyone tell me what they may have gone to? Hoping to clean them up and soda blast them and sell them to keep the XS400 project alive. So if your looking to buy hit me up!

What was "the old dirtbike" frame? Should have a vin tag on the neck. Those carbs (to my uneducated eyes) could be off of any number of Japanese motorcycles from the 60s/70s.

VIN tags didn't arrive until the 80's
It should still have a model/frame number though (probably 9 digit)
