CB400F overall length
« on: May 23, 2016, 03:24:35 PM »
Can someone with the knowledge or a 400 tell me the overall length of the bike as I'm trying to work out if one will fit in my van.
Can only find wheelbase stats elsewhere.

Thanks, Peter

Owner's Handbook gives Overall Length as 2040mm (80.3") and also gives figures of 2035mm for UK type and 2075mm for European type.

If you buy a 400/4 anywhere near us, we can pick it up in the box trailer for you.

I had an original Peugeot expert, so smalish? 400 fitted fine.

Take the front wheel off and itll probably fit or hire a trailer if you have a towbar

No towbar so trailer out. I would like to think it'll fit with the front wheel out but without a bike to look at and measure it's a tough call. I'm looking at one 120 miles away so a long way to go for a wasted trip it it don't fit :-[

Thanks for the input guys. Peter
