found these two pieces in some stuff that came with my Cb400 project. I don't think they are for the Honda though

Hi,
firstly, anyone know a good place to buy a new rim and spokes for the Cb400?
Secondly. the 4 rubber inserts in the rear hub, do I leave as is or remove and replace (if possible)
Any guidance will be helpful.
PS, does anyone have the a 'inner pipe' foot rest thingy and spring 9see picture)

Nurse Julie, I thought it was the right thing to do, use the original parts but I am slowly learning. Next time!
ps. rear mudguard repo is £150 I found. They quoted that to rechrome it, the original is better I guess

So I thought I update you all with my current progress of my 400 build.
Let say first that I didn't expect it to be cheap but for crying out loud, it's expensive!
So in no particular order.
Frame powder coated plus a few other bits
New wiring loom on
Tapered head bearings in
New steering lock (now doesn't lock after attaching the revit!
New rear shocks attached.
Lots of bolts gone for zinc plating hence why the swing arm is not on
Headlight rims, rear brake, rear mudguard and some bots gone for chroming (damn that's expensive)
Front wheel has new rim and spokes and all together after 5 attempts. Now ready for tube, tyre etc
Clocks are stripped, and surrounds painted. Debating whether to leave the faces as are and just put back together again.
Fork tubes need grinding and re-chroming then I build them up.
Rear wheel needs stripping and rebuild
engine, fully dismantled. All cases painted expect engine block. Its still to dirty so I'll get it vapour blasted.
Cam bolt adjusted drilled out and new fitted
Some engine parts bought in readiness but there is a substantial amount to do and spend yet
One side panel needs repair before painting same as the tank
The handle bar I'll by a reproduction as its £70 to get it re chrome
I need to source seat, head lamp holder, indicator brackets, air filter grill, gear lever (re chroming makes not viable)
I need to get the front mudguard re chromed
front brake needs to be refurbishment
Mirrors, transfers and host of other things I've not mentioned or though of yet!

it is not original, it is a cibie, aftermarket fitting common in the past. it is actually a better light than the original but if originality is your thing and you want to sell it let me know, I might have the correct one somewhere.
prefer the original lamp myself. Happy to swap out etc,can you PM?

Hi, see attached picture of the headlight i took off my project. Its a concave headlight stamped made in France!!!!! (it might be a clue)
Is this an original light or a replacement

Hi,
respoked my front wheel. I am putting it together but question the locking tabs that i took off. Is this an original OEM to lock the flange nuts to the disk or has someone added that as the nuts i took off where plain nuts
