Afternoon Chaps 
Chopper Harris here, about to commence the restoration of a 1977 400/4 I bought around 2 1/2 years ago.
26k miles, one previous owner, I have the MOTs and tax disks back to about 1982.
It is basically sound, I have enjoyed her for the past two summers, with littlle more than oil changes and a front caliper rebuild (of course !)
Totally original, the PO had fitted a new OEM front mudguard and a full 4-1.
The only real issue is a small rust patch where the rear fender has corroded through because of that ba**ard cable guide
I've been riding and restoring since the late '70's, with a particular love of MZ's and airhead Beemers.
I will be posing numerous questions, some dumb and hopefully some interesting ones.
Here she is,
