Indeed Mr Webley 😘

Lobo:
... since we’re on the subject of tightening clamps correctly, does the same above sequence apply to the handlebar clamps - eg 750K2 and CB400F.
And wot about the brake reservoir clamp?

Finally... why?

Ta,
Simon

TrickyMicky:
With these types of clamps, if you were able to tighten them so that both faces met, then it would probably mean that they are not gripping the handlebar/axle tight enough. The main reason for tightening the front one fully first means that there is no forward facing gap allowing the ingress of water and dirt.

Yes, and yes.  Attached is page 6 from Honda's CB400 dealer setup manual.  See steps 17 and 18...

Many thanks all - very much appreciated.
