The Honda regulator is a 3-wire unit Mo. I will have to look up that one you have

Hi Mo .. great that the needles are OK.
Iam thinking along the lines that magnets in the rotor may be slightly weak so I would connect the yellow and white wires permanently. However, dig out one of those Kawasaki voltage regulators out and I will tell you how to connect it. This will mean that if you did generate excess charge then the regulator would 'current dump' it to ground and wouldn't overcharge your battery. How does it read if you have the dipped beam on too? Worth checking

yes great Ash thank you they were on the door matt when I got home one more thing out the way......what do I owe you for them ?
just need to get the fluke sorted out and I should be ready for a try out..... the fuse I think should take a few days to get here but when it do I can try it all out.
Cheers
Mo
No charge (on the needles) .... hoping charge on the battery

Ebay is good at these issues. When searching for CB400F spares on Ebay I often see bits for the 1990 CB400F NC27 among the offerings, some people are bound to end up with the wrong thing.
But I've had a Suzuki GT380 in the past and I did some curiosity searching, who would have thought that a pair of chain adjuster supports could cost £999.99 ?  https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/393784855589
I did a google search for the same thing and sanity returned, the same item from the same source gave a price of £35.00. I think Classic Bike Fasters need to talk to Ebay!
The guy from Hull Bertrams Bike Bits does that when he has sold out of something but expecting getting some more ... just puts a ridiculous price on the item. Totally confusing.

On Yahoo Japan auctions it's done all of the time Steve (no eBay in Japan) . They seem to just list every model from the same era. So if it's a CB72 part they will list CB92,CB72, CB160. CB175 etc and it's totally confusing plus they list everything as 'junk' even though a part is in super condition visually. I guess to protect their honour if there is a cock-up in the listing or a buyer claims it is not as described. Not sure why a Yam 2-stroke would be described as a 500 4 though?

Hi Ash
I found out why the meter did Not let the juice though it...... as inside the fluke there is a big 15 amp fuse never seen one that big and it has blown don`t know where you can get them.....
Oh Roy.... is the Carb on the right a 14c as that is the one that looks the same as mine ?
Is it like this Mo? If so cheapest I can find in UK not China. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/395247827626That fuse will blow if you connect as I described AND operate the electric starter.

Will be a K2 as it's a USA model. But UK CB250s were out of sequence after K0 ..I.e K2 started with a 3 , K4 started with a 5 ...etc etc.
It's a CL350 Ash.
Yes I know but numbering was the same I believe.

One more thing I took the + wire off the battery side and put that to the meter and the - from the other side of the Meter to the battery but how do you get the power to run the bike as No lights etc.... I Know its just me but I said I was No good with electrics ha something I am doing wrong ha
Cheers
Mo
Did you have the red lead in the 10A socket on your meter Mo ? and the meter switched to 10A DC range? This should give you normal power into the electrical circuits and also a means of measuring the current drawn. DO NOT operate the electric starter though ! Only kickstart the bike

Mo and Roy .. I know you think I probably drag my feet finding stuff but look what i had to look through to find the 450 carb spares and a pair of needles for you Mo. The re-plated parts were not there Roy but I have another stash to look through.
Will post the needles off to you Monday Mo

Japanese Classic magazine was launched to rival it, my own 400/4 was on the cover of the first edition. It folded after six issues due to lack of sales 
I can't find reference to that magazine anywhere Dave. Do you still have a copy?
