Here's a link to a Yamaha XS 400 site. Pics should help you out.

Your asking for a lot with no info...

Do you have pictures (probably can tell from them alone) or a vin number?

XS 400 Seca, sporty looking version.

Xs 400 Maxim, more classic cruiser look.

I believe there were 4 types...heres a link from the TMW site (theres more to it then the forums I once read in a siggie)

As far as I know, they are all the same engine, just different frames I think
