1981 Honda Cm400 Motorcycle - 6800 Original Miles (re-listing) on 2040-motos

Honda Other description

1) There is a small scratch on the tank (see pictures)

2) After driving her for a few weeks a slight "lag" developed when accelerating - nothing major as I still drove her everyday.
(I am not a motorcycle mechanic and did not attempt to correct the problem for fear of making it worse. I am to assuming there is a problem with mixture, or the carbs aren't completely sync'd. The lag is between 2000 and 3000 RPM, above or below that or cruising their is no issue, just accelerating.)
UPDATE: I had a Harley Mechanic Look at the Bike and he told me that the carbs were running rich and just needed adjustment.

3) The front forks need the seals replaced as they are beginning to leak some oil

I have several questions about the bike so I'll try and answer them here. I am not a Motorcycle mechanic. I'm an old CAR mechanic. I did not change the carburetors, the gentleman I purchased the bike from told me he had them replaced. I have no paperwork but I do have the old carburetors (which come with the bike after the auction) I installed a new battery and rebuilt the master cylinder. I adjusted the clutch (would not go out of gear when I purchased it) so I could drive it. I have been driving it nearly every day for almost two months. I LOVE driving it. Why am I selling it? After I purchased it my wife got cold feet, and then my mom and mother in law chimed in. I have two young children so the arguments just weren't worth it at this point. I had a Harley mechanic stop by (yesterday) to check it out for a friend of his and this is what he had to say: Front Caliper is hanging up slightly Clutch is in need of some fine tuning adjustment Carburetors are running a bit rich Rear tire is close to needing replacement IF you have anymore questions feel free to write - more than happy to answer any and all questions. Thanks!
