The important bit about the bike is missing.

What colour is it  ;D

Everyone in considering a 400 Four needs to know as they have a difference in performance    ;D ;D

Sounds like a nice example, hope you get good interest for the sale.

Yellow,,the best colour. I've tried to post the pics but keeps coming up file too large..I thought it was because they were too shiny lol.im just not getting any time to use the bike as a combination of the grandkids, weather and dealing with the guide dogs etc.plus im not allowed to keep the bike indoors as an ornament..bugger.

Great restoration Pete, a credit to you and the hassle I know you've had bringing the bike up to the standard it is in now.
It's yellow, what more can I say, obviously a man of taste.
I hope it sells for you but maybe not the best time of year to be selling it, can you hold onto it until the spring when people's thoughts turn to summer, biking and a bigger audience.
I tried to sell my original 400/4 on eBay recently and despite over 300+ watchers and over 20 bids nobody came close to the reserve, nobody came to see it and I was asked just two questions and they were 1. What is the reserve and 2. How much will you take for it if it doesn't sell.
I sold it to a mate a couple of weeks ago as an ornament for his dining room!
