Got'em today.......I don't know, two calendar days from Viet Nam to the interior of British Columbia....I must have entered a time warp........good service, Viet, they look good, I suspect there will be very little fiddling to get them mounted and working well. Thanks.

Hello, Viet, Looks like you're creating quite the industry with rearsets, tanks, seats, etc.....good on yah. I see from the photos in the forum that you can fit a '78 xs400, using a bracket. The one photo shows the brake side, good fit. I cannot find a photo for fitting the bracket on the...

Aawww, crap....all these creative mods are going to cost me more money/time on my XS400 project...improvements I didn't even know I "needed". Love the thread, excellent photos, truly astronomical attention to detail...I gotta get a better welder and new skills....

That bike is basically the same as a GS 400 and GS 450 (except for the GS400E, which had the 4-valve head)....lots of parts are interchangable. Check out http://www.thegsresources.com/ for model info and more mechanical help. Rearsets from the GS400E would likely fit right on....
