CB350/400 / Re: Fork gaiters on 400/4...cool or naff?
« on: September 13, 2018, 06:24:19 PM »
I have no opinion on how they would look whether cool or naff, sorry.
Only that it's your bike and if you're not hung up on originality which seems to get some people's knickers in a twist and if you feel they'll enhance your enjoyment of riding it who cares how they look.

Julie, not sure if you mean me but my 750 is a K2 with the f*@k off massive rear light so no help here.

Here's Mick's rear light which I believe is a K1 but unsure if it's an import or UK model, sorry.

Nope, totally wrong.

Can you put a pic of the right one up please then for future ref. As this guide seems to differ. http://honda750expert.com/
Interesting. Just found out my side panel diamond badges are the wrong colour. Oh well, won't be able to sleep tonight now  ::)

CB350/400 / Cylinder one running cooler than other three
« on: September 11, 2018, 08:32:15 PM »
As cylinders 1&4 share coils/points probably safe to eliminate those.
New plugs aren’t guaranteed good though. I’d try swapping plug with another cylinder first to eliminate or prove plug In number one is all good. Also double check lead/cap.

Great work Harold, so satisfying and saves a bob or two as well.
If you don't count the spare bottom end he bought to practice on  :o

I use brake cleaner when cleaning any oily parts. It evaporates and leaves an oil free surface.

I can put you in touch with the guy who did my 500 tank/panels in Hertfordshire, 2 week turnaround. Quality and finish recommended by me.

CB350/400 / 400/4 in Rothmans colours
« on: September 01, 2018, 08:30:21 PM »
I'm sure it will divide opinion but I've always been a sucker for a Honda in Rothmans colours (re-did my CBR400RR in Rothmans colours a few years ago  ;D)

Anyway worth a look
