Parting Out 72 400

Post by johnnycyclone »

I'm parting out what's left of a 72 400. There are a few parts missing, and some aren't much good, but there are a few good parts left. If you see something you need, send me a pm.

Thanks....Terre

The previous owner said the tank had been cleaned and sealed. The kill switch works good, but the chrome is rusted and the rubber boot is cracked. I start the tear down tomorrow night, so I will take a closer look at the inside of the tank.

Tanks is solid, but has a dent on the one side, which you can see in the picture. Inside doesn't look very clean, but when I flushed the tank, nothing came out, so I don't know if they just sealed it over the rust or not. If you are still interested let me know. No problem if you don't want it.

The chrome on the handle bars and the speedo bezel have some surface rust. This sled has 6000 miles and wasn't given the best care.
