Project Board / 1976 CB400F
« on: September 01, 2017, 11:56:36 PM »
Hi all, thought i'd start a thread with my new winter project. Bought this 400F a couple of weeks ago for 1200 pounds (that's about the cheapest possible for 400F in Denmark). It has 26.000 miles on it and in need of a lot of TLC. Also gonna be opening it up, as the cam chain rattles like a hunting party of rattle snakes. Who knows how long it has been doing that.
This is my second 400F, and this one feels a bit under powered. So yet another reason to have a look on the engine. Going to check the compression before disassembly.
Not sure what the path is with this one. I am strongly considering a 466 kit, and also toying with the idea of dual disc up front. I'll see what the future brings. And to the most important part, some pictures.
