Tank repair

[royhall]

A 400/4 tank will fit, but the fitment to the seat can be an issue. Seen it done though. Other than that, 350 tanks come up fairly regularly or try ringing DK's as they have broken loads of 350's recently. The 350F tank is unique to the 350F. Hope that helps. By the way, throw that tank in the bin. As Trigger says, if you blast it there will be nothing left to repair. Don't waste your time and money.

Patch the holes with gaffer tape.

What about chewing gum. Try getting that sod off the bottom of your shoe.

The guy in Sutton who goes under the name of 'Bike Pusher' on e-bay was breaking a pretty good CB350/4 about a month ago.  Try him to see if he's sold the tank. He goes to the Kempton Park auto jumble although contact him first.

Bike pusher isn't very popular on here to say the least.

Yes Roy, He is expensive but sometimes he's the only person who has hard to find parts and to be honest if you do a face to face bit of negotiating with him he does drop the price and does a good deal if you buy a number of parts at the same time. 
Steve Cooper is very good and very helpful.
I have bought parts from a number of breakers in the US but the cost of postage and if the parcel is stopped in customs as a couple of mine have been the tax is a killer .
I'm just going on my own personal experience though.

Have you tried DK   Bet they will have something . If not now they are bound to have something in the not too distant future.

They set me for a rubber hammer but fortunately I knew they had one in the tool room so it sort of backfired on them.

Like it or not guys he's breaking good bikes and if he has the part you want ..just go for it ?I say. I am so passionate about finding the correct parts that, hypocritically I know, before I am shot down in flames/ hung, drawn,& quartered,  ...if he had the rare part I wanted I would have no hesitation about buying from him. The engine he sold from that 350 four was an absolute steal.
I like his story where he had a NOS 400/4 exhaust for sale for about £1,500  and also sold a second hand one on eBay. He was out when the guy came to pickup up the second hand one but BP's missus almost gave the buyer the NOS one by accident !

Ok so I went to Cw classics today as its only 5 mins round the corner and had my head set straight.
My heart was trying to rule my head as I really wanted to keep that worn look the tank has even though deep down I knew it was game over.

I searched 'Honda CB Tank' on eBay earlier, no 350F's, couple of 400F's. Anybody know of a thread with pics of a 350 with a 400 tank?

Please reeducate me if I'm wrong but the limited swap choices seem to be the placement of the coils requiring the two square cut outs on the underside of the tank?
I did notice that some of the 500 & 750 tanks had similar undersides but I'm assuming that those bikes are longer and so would be the tank??

👍 that's the kiddy.
Don't look too bad apart from the seat being all squashed up. I only have a bare seat pan at the moment so wouldn't be too much of an issue if I did go down the route of a 400 tank as it would be easy enough to shorten the pan.

Well done Chris
