Welcome Tony.
It will be interesting to see how close your estimate of time was when the restoration is done!
Fire away with questions as you come up with them, there is a wealth of information available from members on here.
And as you may already have noticed we love pictures here - before, during and afterwards.

It doesn't matter how long it takes Tony, as long as you do it to the best of your ability and the bank balance will allow, have fun along the way and end up with a safe bike.

Hi all

Just a quick question.

Did the 1976 400 4 come with cast wheels ?

Thanks

A big welcome from another 400four owner and restorer.   Is that patch of paving on your avatar where the bike will go?
Don't forget to post some piccies,  don't make me come round your house with a camera.   ;D
