Title: Looking for History on my 400?
Post by: 400gs6 on January 08, 2011, 08:07:53 AM
I've had this '76 400 Cross Country for about 15 years and wondering if anyone here might know some history on it.  

From what I was told, it was bought new by a Doctor from Michigan.  It was entered in the Jack Pine Two Day run but supposedly never finished and then stored away for years. It does have a leaded tag safety wired through the head/cyl/frame. The bike was sold (by the original owner) through Hemmings and shipped to MA in the late 80's I believe. It presently only has 500 miles on it and had less than 300 when I purchased it.  

Last Spring, I was told by a POG member that someone from this board was the one who actually rode this bike at the 2 Day.  

Anyone remember this old ride?

Thanks,

Kurt
