Hi guys and girls I am new here.
I am here with my late father's motorbikes, a Honda CB750 K4 and 400 Super Sport, as well as a Suzuki GT380.
The 750 is my Dad's favourite and in time I'd like to get it running again.
-
Welcome! .. Nice that you are getting your fathers machines up and running. He sure would be proud I bet.
Manuals for your Hondas are on here in my Dropbox link inc Service & Parts books. Funnily my 1st 400/4 in 1977 was a trade in as the 1st owner swapped it for a GT380 :D

Thanks!
I think it'll be later rather than sooner as a lot to sort yet, but I'll try and get some photos up eventually

Welcome.
Another CB400/4 owner, great, the more the merrier I reckon ;D ;D ;D
Have fun

Welcome.

Welcome to the mad world of the SOHC, not another USA K4 :)
-
Some of us have to settle for the US bikes as someones been hoovering up the UK spec ones ;D
-
;D ;D ;D ;D As long as they start, run, stop and put a smile on your face does it really matter where they come from Mick
-
Not at all.But all my bikes have suffered from saggy suspension.
Stop I don't know of a 750 that can do that
-
You can always use your feet Mick. Oops, almost forgot you can't reach the ground on yours 😁😁😁
-
What needs doing on the bikes, maybe we can be of assistance., also some photos would be good.

Welcome to a great forum, fantastic people on here, you'll enjoy it. Good luck with the projects, start with the 400 ;D

Hi Guys,
Thanks for all the kind comments and welcomes.
At the moment it's not my place, but the Solicitor's (and the will) that dictates what will happen to them, but I'd love to keep at least one, and have it running.
They have all been off the road since 1998 minimum and the 750 and possibly the 400/4 have been kicked over regularish and the Suzuki virtually never (due to storage). Unsure as to what the 750 would need to get it running, I know nothing about bikes or their engines!

Got a profile pic up, but struggling to post as an error occurs

Once you are past 5 posts the anti-spam backs off and life will get a lot easier David

If you know nothing about bikes and you want it up and running, DO NOT take it to your local Honda shop, as they will not have a clue. There is a member in Hove that specialises in CB750's.

agreed,this forum is full of nice friendly riders with the total aim of maintaining and keep old 70's (sohc prefered,but not exclusively) on
the road.
best wishes,and good luck
