Hi from Dungeness. Kent.
« on: August 26, 2014, 07:26:01 PM »
Just gone back to a 1978 400/4 from a CBR 600. Have been riding bikes 35+ years and still can't get it out of my system
.(Never grown up !!). Wanted something a bit slower these days. I've been told this is the Forum to be in and I'm sure I will need your help and advice in the future. :-*

Welcome from me too you will find all need on this friendly site ! I can't believe how popular the 400/4 has become. They are lovely little bikes and at last people are reproducing decent parts recently. When I restored mine way back in 1986, my bike was only 11 years old then but getting decent frame parts was a nightmare with no internet ect. The paintwork is F2 but the bike is a '75 pillion rests -on-the-swinging- arm type. You had artistic licence way back  then  ;D. Now have blue tank for it to satisfy the purists (thanks to Ian member 'Boggieman'). What's wrong with photos Trig?

Welcome Nurse Julie. I'm an NHS worker too. I've been slowly restoring a 400 for the past couple of years. Got her on the road earlier this year. You'll fine lots of friendly helpful advice here.
