I love the fairing btw.

I only ever fitted one aftermarket fairing & that was to an Ariel Arrow it looked great but my steering lock was crap afterwards!

Bryanj:
Put a lamplast fairing on a 500 velo and it made it slower

Hi all

First thanks for the advice on possible rear sets

No I don’t think it will make the old girl quicker

Just want to make the bike a bit different

Been searching off and on for this type of fairing  that was designed for the CB400F off for over a year but nothing but just decided last night to just have a nosy on flea bay and this popped up so just had to have it

I will need a refurb / repaint but it does come with all the correct front and rear mounting brackets for the CB400F set up




So should be not to much of a struggle to fit and just need to sort out handle bar switch gear (I have a plan for that) and maybe reduce steering lock ( but my lower yoke already has adjustable stops as the originals were damaged that allowed the forks to touch the tank on full lock) and then sort some rear sets

Lastly the bottom is cut to match the original Honda down pipe collector so this may need a tweak to suit the Delkevic exhaust




Catch up soon

Best wishes Al

Hi all

Well that the first bit done

Now fitted with some ACE bars and some bloody expensive rear sets

Bars fit well and adapted the original Honda switched by milling two exit holes for the cables so I can keep the original look switch gear and starting to get back to that 70’s look







Plan now is to finish off my tank and side panel respray, fit new decals and run her for the summer while I sort out the fairing which now currently is hung up on the garage wall



Catch up again soon and stay safe all

Best wishes Al
