Project Board / CB400/4 race bike project thing that is getting out of control ;)
« on: November 28, 2018, 11:21:12 AM »
Greetings fellow Honda fans. Hope everyone is well.
I've stalked and lurked on here for ages, Finally got round to writing up what I've tinkered with.
It started out as a little bit of fun, I went to Cadwell Park for the international meeting 3 years ago i think it was.
There was a George Beal Honda 6 replica there, Along with all the other iconic race bikes. This really set the wheels in motion.
I really wanted something cool to ride about on and just generally play with, So i sourced the project, Luckily there was a race bike that was nestled away in the back of a gentleman's shed, After a little negotiating, We brought her home!
Then the fun started, Stripped down and removed the bits i didn't require.
Just a few pics of the progress.
I shudder to think what i have spent on it up to now, However i'm pleased with it, There is still some things that i want to change on it before i feel like its complete.
I recently had it on the dyno, A cheeky 49.8 Bhp. Which i'm pleased with, Still needs a little more jetting though.
I do have a clip of it running and on the dyno. I'll try and post them next.
