Does anyone have one for the CB400F ?
Following from Rob.b's comment about G5 mudguards (the one I had then and the one I have now are both short) I didn't realise the 400 ever had a long rear guard.
Looks like German market only from the parts list.

The German bikes had even uglier mudguards than ours.

Here is the  USA market 1968 model 350K0 I am building up in K1 form (pleated seat/ extra stripe on tank) the same Candy Blue Green (we never got the K1 in the UK) . Notice the mudguards compared with the UK 250. Sadly we never got the 350 till the K4 (well it was 325cc really). Managed to get a NOS front USA guard at DS for it (one on DK bike was perfect but scuffed on one edge). The 69 only bike had a reflector on the front guard .. really rare to find rocking horse poo .. I found it taped to the frame on mine. It was also fitted to other USA models in 1969 only.

There was  a CB250/350/360G model  that was not like our G5 and sold in Europe with the long/deeply valanced guard  but it had the old engine (K4)  and disc brake (Chris in Japan has one and DK have sold a few barn finds)

Here is the CB350, never even seen one for the CB175.  I'm humbled by the response to this topic; I thought I was the only one accumulating these, but I'm clearly just an amateur!

That one of the SS125 has a candy painted frame.. Christ knows how much it would be to get one of those repainted. Wonder if Menno has had one to do yet?

I don't know anyone in your area but LSN Coatings in Castleford would charge about  £85 for frame & Swinging arm, inc. blasting. They do bike/automotive , they even do candy.

You said it! Just need the right colour  :)

No need to apologist Uli   :D .. That's my favourite 450 model, so thanks for sharing.
