The 400 shares the same hub and dampers so I thought the 400 sprocket pegs might be slightly different and offer a solution. Lots on eBay for around £10 a set so at that price I thought I'd give them a try. Unfortunately these are incorrect as well. Although the flange fits in the sprocket recess correctly the pin diameter is 9mm instead of 12mm - the photo shows it much better than my explanation.
I may have to cut the flanges on the original pegs to suit.

Today I've been repairing/replacing wires, removing quick splice connectors and crimping some new connectors to the idiot light assembly and gauge lights. Most of the quick splice connectors are shown in the stripdown photo below.

Fitted new bulbs all round and checked the lighting circuits were ok. No unexpected problems but I can see it will need some care to connect everything neatly in the headlight shell come the time.
The seat is in reasonably good condition but the chrome effect trim was poor. I was surprised to find that it's part of the cover and not removable. So I've carefully rubbed it down, and after masking, sprayed it with aluminium effect enamel. It's come out better than I expected and I'll apply a coat of lacquer next week.
