Hi Brian and welcome ;D Seems to be a lot of new members joining lately with 400 Fours, nice little bikes that handle very well, and there seem to be plenty of new spares out there right now.
If it's got tits or wheels, it's hassle, if it's got both, RUN!!!

Welcome Brian. I'm just down the road in Bangor. I think you will get all the help you need here,I did.
'Then' and 'than' are completely different words and have completely different meanings. Same with 'of' and 'have'. Set and sit. There, their and they're. Set/sit. Bought/brought FFS. Bloody Americans.

Fellow newbie sends greetings. Antrim's a bit of a schlep from Somerset, but it's great to see and hear of all these old 400/4s coming back to life and a caring old age! Good luck, Drew.
