Honda Cb400f Rebuild

(1/4) > >>

Dylaxn:
Hey!

I have recently inherited a CB400F from my Father-in-Law which looks almost complete. As far as I know, the engine has been fully rebuilt with a new loom too.

By the looks of things, it looks a case of attaching the front light, fitting the petrol tank, attaching the fuel lines, seat and other little bits.

I will try and do most of the work with the help of the Haynes manual and Google, but are there any specialist garages that can thoroughly check it over to make sure everything is done correctly ect.

Thanks  :)

Download the proper Honda maual and use the Haynes to light the barbie

I wouldn't worry about getting it checked over by a garage just yet, just systematically work through the jobs you have identified with the first aim being to get it running. There will be lots of little challenges along the way, just keep posting when you hit a snag and you'll get plenty of advice and learn as you go along. Nice to have a 400 restore in my neck of the woods, I live in Peterborough.

Laverda Dave:
Hopefully the carbs have been properly cleaned and rebuilt as it's these that give 90% of the starting/running problems. Do you have any history of the work undertaken and bills for spares used?
Any problems though just post a question and you will get a response almost straight away.

Laverda Dave:
And a good tip............if you strike a problem go to the 400 Four section of the forum and use the search box on the upper r/h side to type in the issue you have, most 400/4 questions have been asked at some point  :)
