I've got a lot of the engine stripped, it wasn't seized, the bores look ok although the cam "bearings" in the head look a little worse for wear. I've been lucky so far no snapped bolts.

Hi all, bike is a 1975 CB400F approx 20-25K from new. It's had a hard life. An argument with a MK1 ford Granada - repaired, locked in a workshop full of perspex which was set alight by arsonists - repaired, left in a damp lock up for over 20 years. Now being restored by me and my eldest son. I'm doing the engine, my son most everything else. I'm attaching some photos and will add to these as time goes on.

Hi I've been off 2 wheels for nearly 22 years. I've just started a CB400F Restoration with my eldest son. The bike is a 1975 model bought from Mike Weston motorcycles, Birkenhead and is owned by my brother who has had the bike from new. It has lain unused in a damp lock up for almost 23 years and is looking sorry for itself. We aim to put is back to it's 1975 condition.
