About this model
About the Yamaha XS 400
The Yamaha XS 400 was an accessible middleweight twin in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Its air-cooled 399 cc parallel twin, six-speed gearbox and straightforward twin-shock chassis make it light, understandable and usable as a classic. Standard, SE, Special and Heritage versions appeared depending on market and year, with differences in tank, seat, wheels and handlebars.
Many XS400s have since been converted into café racers, scramblers, trackers, choppers or hardtails. Inspect the frame, wiring, brakes and registration identity particularly carefully. Mechanically, carburettors, intake rubbers, valve clearances, cam chain and charging system need attention. Tank and exhaust corrosion also matter, while original components are becoming scarce. The selected Commons photograph shows an exact Yamaha XS 400.

Before you buy
What to check before buying
- Inspect the frame and welds for unapproved hardtail, subframe or café-racer modifications and compare the frame number with registration documents.
- Start cold and check carburettors, choke and intake rubbers for leaks, blockage or unstable idle.
- Listen to the cam chain and valve train and ask for valve-clearance and regular oil-service records.
- Measure charging voltage and inspect the stator, regulator, battery, fuses and modified wiring for heat or corrosion.
- Check the tank, fuel tap, exhaust, brakes, fork seals and wheel bearings for rust, leakage and age-related wear.
