CB350/400 / Yellow (Size D) Main Bearings
« on: January 31, 2023, 01:44:09 PM »
Hi All,

Just in process of an engine rebuilt and have worked out what main bearings i need. Namely 6 yellows and 4 greens. The greens look to be in good supply, but can't say the same for the yellows. David silvers and CMSNL both out of stock, found another site over in japan but still nothing.

Does anyone have any leads on yellow bearings at all?
Any other solutions out there at all?

Toying with the idea of trying a green out and seeing how the clearance is with plastigauge.

Hi guys,
It’s been a while since a disassembled my 400. Where does the big gaggle of bullet connectors for the handlebar switch gear usually sit once plugged into the main loom?? Got an idea it’s either on the frame rail going down in front of the engine or in the back of the headlight!!
Thanks in advance.

CB350/400 / Roger’s 400 build

Well after 2 years from originally buying and posting in the forum I thought I better update on my progress so far.

The first year went pretty well and work progressed swiftly. The second year however was rather much slower, mainly down to a house extension and my CB being deposited in a storage unit for around 9 months. As you can imagine this slowed progress somewhat.

To date I’ve been concentrating on the chassis. The frame, Swingarm, yokes, centre stand and some other small stuff went of to be coated. I decided to use Cerakote and the finished articles came back excellent. The Swingarm required some repairs along the way after finding rust and filler in it!! Next along I got the hubs, front brakes items, spindles, engine bolts, Swingarm pivot, battery box and other item coated too.

So now, as you can see the frame, Swingarm, yokes and  centre stand are back together. I’m just about to order some rims and spokes, and some fork tubes to try and push on a little further, I would like a rolling chassis by then end of the summer if possible and then move onto the engine.

Just a quick hello from me,

I have just got hold of a 1978 400/4 and started stripping down for restoration. Loving the info and wealth of knowledge that is available from the forum.

Cheers all.
