I assume you mean the tensioner(s) DS used to list them iirc.

If you have a look on the CMSNL site - Honda - CBFours - CB 400 and see if you can find the description and part number of what you need, then one of us might have something. Or as Ted says, DS might have something,
Ian

I looked in the same place the other day Julie, same answer off course, I hope it isn't an 'orphaned' item. My bike goes in for a rebuild tomorrow primarily because the gaskets are leaking like a Brit bike but I've bought in a new cam chain and all tensioner items horseshoe included, however I have to hope & pray the push bar is actually ok. ::) I've tried everywhere I can think of except to ask DS if they have a 2nd hand one. I've had a couple of used parts of DS.

Nope, I checked!
