Hi
« on: July 12, 2016, 05:43:42 PM »
Hi guys and girls I am new here.

I am here with my late father's motorbikes, a Honda CB750 K4 and 400 Super Sport, as well as a Suzuki GT380.

The 750 is my Dad's favourite and in time I'd like to get it running again.

Welcome!  .. Nice that you are getting your fathers machines up and running. He sure would be proud I bet.

Manuals for your Hondas are on here in my Dropbox link inc Service & Parts books. Funnily my 1st 400/4 in 1977 was a trade in as the 1st owner swapped it for a GT380  :D

Thanks!

I think it'll be later rather than sooner as a lot to sort yet, but I'll try and get some photos up eventually

Welcome, fellow 400four owner (or is it "son of 400four owner"? )
Where's that 10mm socket got to?
