OAP Ted's CB400F2 rebuild - engine not run for about 12 years.
Laverdaroo:
The right decision ;D ;D ;D ;D, lasts longer and more fun doing it. Good on yer Ted :)
McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
A bit more progress today as I could bask in the warmth of my Halogen Flood Lights whilst I tinkered - just bit's & bobs whilst I wait for my rear new rear wheel lock ring.

I have to agree with you it's starting to look like a bike again - once my back wheel is in I'm going to start fitting the wiring loom - that will be fun - electrics can go really well or just turn into a series of things just not working right.
I'll have to brush up on my AVO skills first as I usually just rely on voltage readings for most things - also I have a tendency to forget that an earth connection on the Honda is going to mean it's a negative ground unlike modern cars that are positive earth. Once I have worked out the colour of a ground wire is usually green it should start to make sense - unlike most cars where they are brown. I can easily get confused - I like block connectors that are Male or female with offsets to stop you plugging the wrong ones in.
Laverdaroo:
Sounds like you'll be needing some factor 40 Ted, dont be getting burnt in front of those lights ;D ;D ;D
The builds looking fantastic, loving that blue, that will be stunning when shes done.
