1977 400F2 first restore project
robvangulik:
By those marks you probably mean the name of the manufacturer, TOKICO?
Leave the "dowel" where it is, I never removed one in over 40 years, it's only there to keep the pad from rotating.

I often use the finger over the bleed nipple trick. On the road so it doesn't mess up my drive.

Front brake still drawing air in from somewhere so currently on hold waiting for new washers and bleed nipple. I've also ordered a brake master cylinder service kit which will either go into the MC on the bike or the spare MC which I have now managed to take apart.
Petrol tank is currently enjoying a bath in 5 litres of Evaporust.
So spending some time looking around the bike and found that the clutch casing is broken, below the kick start. I've put in 3 images showing close up then moving out. It's a shame because it's the shiniest bit on the bike!

Had a quick look for a replacement but the one I have found listed as CB 400 f is different. Am I getting the name right, clutch casing, clutch housing. Is a CB 400 f different to a CB 400 F super sport? Below a link to the one that is clearly different.

Nurse Julie:
That one is for a CB350/4 which is a different cover to which is fitted to the 400/4.Basically, the listing is wrong.
smoothoperator:
Thanks. I'll keep looking!
