New project bike

Well We’ve got a new bike in the garage to work on. In this case it’s a butt ugly Yamaha XS400. I picked this one up pretty cheap. The tank has a few spots of rust on the inside and needs some engine work, however it runs well and should be fun to either restore, or convert to flat tracker or bobber depending on how much effort I want to put into this.

I’ve already pulled the carbs off but that’s about as far as I’ve gotten. And yes, the seat is on backwards.
