Hi all from Lancashire
« on: August 07, 2026, 09:36:13 AM »
Hi all,
Thanks for having me.
I’ve just bought a ‘77 400/4 in parakeet yellow.
If you’re around Lancashire you may see me about usually Glasson Dock, Rivington barn, Devils bridge or occasionally North Yorkshire.
Looking forward to getting to know the bike, servicing and a bit of fine tuning.
Cheers
Ian

Welcome, there are lots of 400 owners here and all willing to share help and advise. Many will tell you that you have the fastest 400 as its yellow :-) ...

Welcome to the forum Ian 🙂.
George is of course correct about the yellow ones being the fastest, it could just be a rumour put around by myself, I can't possibly comment.......🤔
