Hello from Pete
« on: November 22, 2017, 11:57:12 PM »
I've recently started a project to restore a 1975 Honda 400 four for which I drove the car from Bristol to Inverness to pick up in bits. The engine and most of the bike was dismantled with many parts missing. But I'm enjoying the challenge.

Thanks to all the members at Honda-SOHC, the forum has been invaluable.

For info my other ride is a Yamaha 1600 Road Star Silverado which I call Ol' Red  :D

I have fond memories of the Honda CB400F and I'm very much looking forward to getting this one back on the road.

Welcome Pete from one more 400/4 owner.
I also drove a fair distance for boxes of rusty bits when I got mine but have loved every minute of the restoration.
Loads of help and advice if needed.  ;D ;D
