Can any tell me the correct routing of the breather pipe
That goes from the rocker cover to the bottom of the air
filter on a 400 4
Thanks

I fitted brake light to my (US) 400 f today
One filament of the bulb is on all the time
But pressing either brake does not light the
Other filament ... Both brake switchs appear
to be working,, I checked the switches with a
continuity meter,, where do I start trying to sort this???

I think tab washers were only used on the 350f bikes

Hi, Thanks for reply
It seems to knock and rattle all the time
The bike has not been in use for about 5 years
It is just coming to the end of a restoration but
no engine work was done during rebuild as it is
a very low mileage engine and was running fine
before bike was stripped..
Carbs have been rebuilt (Gerbin) and have been
balanced since been fitted to the bike..
The mechanic that worked on the bike for me seems
to think the slop on the clutch is the problem.

Hi,
My 400 F has a knocking sound from the clutch so
I have taking the clutch apart to try and find what is causing this.
All I can find is that there is slop between the gear on the back
of the clutch outer. I can rock the gear approx 2mm back and fort
without the front of the outer clutch moving
Is this normal? Do I need to replace?
Thanks

Hi, I know this came up recently on this forum but
I can not find the post.
Any one got pictures or hints on how to fit the spring
on the rear brake pedal?
Thanks

Hi, I am hoping to get my new wheel bearing fitted this week.
One question, which way round does the front wheel bearing spacer go in?
Thanks
