Can anyone confirm if it's possible to change the starter reduction gear without splitting the cases? (400/4). I don’t think it can but a customer of mine insists it can be done by just removing the sump, having never tried to do it this way I'm only 99% sure it can't but appreciate any comments
Cheers Daz

Anybody know what material swinging arm spindles bolts are made of? I may need to make a longer one for a 750 kawasaki project Im working on if I can’t find one from another bike. I did think of using En16, thanks

Hi all, just about to reassemble the rocker shafts on a engine that someone else stripped, I normally put the springs against the side with the wide flange on the rocker cover but this is different to how the part manual shows unless I’m reading it wrong?  Found this on Julies rebuild, this is how I usually do it

 Hi all, I took this picture when I was stripping the engine, in the centre of the clutch is a spring that I cannot find in the parts manual, should it be fitted or is it another of the previous owners modifications ?

Hi all, I’m just about to strip the countershaft on a cb400 and noticed that both ends of the shaft have a blanking plug fitted but one appears to have a hole drilled in it, is this hole supposed to be in ? Thanks

Has anyone tried Motul oil in the 400/4 ? I use Motul in all my modern bikes but thought id check on here before I poor it into my newly rebuilt engine. Thanks, Daz

Anybody used this gasket set before ?  I did buy a vesrah gasket set from David Silvers but the metal rings on the head gasket are rusty and not something I fancy using. Thanks

Would an engine come from the factory with all the same size conrods ? for example 4 no 2s ? or is it acceptable to mix them if the weights are the same ?

I’ve stripped the 400 engine down today ready for the rebuild, I’m a bit concerned about the amount of end float on the crankshaft, the car engines I’ve done in the past had thrust washes on the crank to eliminate this but the Honda engine has nothing. There is no noticeable wear on the crank or the casings but when the crank is pulled from side to side by the stator rotor there’s movement and a definite clunk, the points plate was removed when I tried this, any ideas ? Thanks

Hi does anyone have a recommendation for new pistons ? My engine needs a rebuild and a rebore, I’ve looked at Silvers website but is there anything better available ? Thanks

Hi I’ve just fitted aftermarket switch gear from silvers and noticed there’s 2 spare wires in the original Honda loom, a orange/white one and a blue/white one, any body know what there for ? The new switchgear wires are all connected so its nothing I’ve missed i dont think  Thanks Daz

Hi guys I’m currently putting a bike together that I didn’t strip down and need a bit of help regarding the handlebar wiring route and how the two bundles of wires run when they exits the hole in the middle of the handlebars, I’ve tried to look at pictures online but some run the pair of wires to the left hand side of the ignition switch and some split them and run one to the left and one to the right. Id like to run them as the factory did so if anyone can offer any help it would be appreciated, thanks Daz
