AshimotoK0:
My 400/4 is to be featured in the March edition (available mid February) of Classic Motorcycle Mechanics Magazine. The article is written by Mark Williams the founder of 'Bike' Magazine.

Cheers

SteveD CB500K0:
Given the way the publishing world works Pete, the March mag is probably out next week!

Looking forward to it Ash.

I read about this article...CB400F vs. the RD400E.

No competition really...you are either into four strokes or two strokes.

AshimotoK0:
 :) ;) :D ;D  :o :  OK Guys - its out, evidently, I don't have a copy yet but already getting vibes about being incorrectly quoted.

So to put the record straight before the 'anoraks' ;) :) ;D (JOKE!!!) , out there start bombarding me with stuff.

1) I DON'T own and have never owned a 'Sandcast' CB750 and to my knowledge, none were ever officially sold in the UK by Honda, apart from, possibly, the 'Brighton show' bike.
2) I don't own or have never owned a 'rare' CB750K2 but I once owned a CB250K2 as a student
3) My 400/4 has Candy Antares Red paintwork, which I did myself with rattle cans, including the pinstripes, in 1986 before I became mega fussy about originality (i.e. became old and an anorak!! ;D) but that colour is an F2 colour, it's totally non-standard for a 1975 CB400/4 with the pillion footrests mounted on the swinging arm. The bike should be Varnish Blue which I am probably going to return it to, someday.

Cheers ! Ashimoto

P.S. the bike in the article is not fitted with mirrors - I have only just bought them last week, after 23 years (ongoing resto or what!!) I did have some from DSS but they were pattern so gave them to my mate for his KZ750LTD years ago.
