Hi Rudi.
What happened to your engine to make it require a rebuild?

Hello Nigel and Julie
this is a very long story.
My first Bike was 1975 a cb 400 four. Two years later I sold.
In the meantyme I had a lot of different Bikes and a long nothing.
8 years ago I thought about a new, used cb 400 four at ebay.
I´ve done everything by myself. Only the Motor a specialist had done.
After 500 Km , when I start the cold engine it smoked blue for nearly 5 minutes.
When the motor reached Temperatur there was nothing.
The specialist changed once more the piston rings. To original Honda!!??
But after 500 Km , the same procedure. Smoking like crazy.
I was so angry, Iwould like to sell this Honda.
Then I had an Idea. In the near of my City is an old Honda dealer, I contacted him.
He has now putted in Pistens, rings. 0,75 .Everything original Honda parts.
I brought him the disassambled Bike. He opend the motor and was looking everywhere.
I hope, now everything is now okay. This bike was until now very expensive. Incredible.
It´s a pity, the weather. Okay it´s winter. Therfore it stands in my flat.
I will put a few fotos without comment.. They show the motor Inside after 500Km.
Regards
Rudi, now and 1976
