Is that a 400/4 clutch 🤔

Are you leaving it with the vapour blast finish or painting it ? I do vapour blasting but I decided to paint mine

It looks like a bit of a bodge to me rather than a Honda job, the holes not drilled in the centre either. I did have 1 comment about it would have been done to stop any gearbox wine but after hours of googling I can’t find any information about it

Ultimately it comes down to budget, I think a second hand shaft from Steve at 400 four bits wouldn't be mega expensive. Last time I looked he had one in stock.Yeah cheers I know what you’re saying, from what I can remember the main shaft and primary shaft are only capped at 1 end so as Ted says Honda did it for a reason. It may have been an old engineers modification years ago, there’s no noticeable wear on anything so who knows 36

Thanks Ted, I agree Honda blanked it for a reason, I don’t know the consequences of just leaving it, the blanking plugs won’t be available now but I could machine something up as a press fit to go in or maybe just use some sort of sealant instead if its not under too much pressure, I think I’ll call round a few bike shops and see if any mechanics can advise me

Yes, it is Ted, sometimes referred to as an output shaft. I wonder if it was a modification to get oil into the shaft ? It’s done it no harm as the shaft and gears have no wear on them at all. I’m tempted just to leave it, what do you think ?

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

Its just a HPI check using the VIN number that reveals the Reg number if its still available

If they have been uk registered then you can get the reg number from the frame number and apply for a logbook using v62 form
