Not a real 460 Yoshi then, only the big n bore kit in an overhauled engine, unless a lot is lost in translation.

For a long storage, I use the drain plugs to empty the carbs. rather than just run them dry, I have seen the "rot" that long term that modern petrol residues can cause, even to alloy and brass in some cases.

Don't always blame the sun or fuel, I fitted an after market battery strap on my 400/4 from a larger on line vendor, and it was cracked and rotting before the bike left my garage. I think some manufacturers see profit before suitable material for our old but loved machines.

They fall between the rear of the engine casing and the frame, and are held together in a square shaped plastic former.

I use a small scissor lift with a shaped wood top under the engine/frame, this takes the weight off both tyres when stood in the garage.Below is similar, but mine hasn't got wheels.

CB350/400 / Re: cB400 left side handlebar switches wiring question?
« on: March 01, 2022, 07:35:09 PM »
I can confirm that my 400/4 was purchased by me UK registered, (2nd hand) in 1979 from its first buyer, and the left switch was a button to earth for the horn, no pass for headlight, I presume the switch was changed by Honda  after 1976

The latter is correct for my 1976 F2 model, the button earths the horn, this was discussed several years ago on here, and I have an (ex-ebay) A3 size coloured diagram showing it
