They are a cracking set of pictures......but I guess you noticed several things that weren't quite right on it at that time? Nice pics nonetheless and I don't doubt it took hours to get them.
Re the 400f, I have no intention of going mad over it.....the crying shame is, the old chap who owned it (79 years old now and a really nice chap) did his mini restoration about six years ago, the bike had been off the road since 1980, it only ever had one MOT......apart from painting various parts rather badly, he fitted a brand new complete exhaust system.....genuine Honda.....it never got as far as the road, all he did was get it running then put it under the cover.....the corrosion you see is what six years very poor storage can do to a brand new part.
The exhaust nuts all look horrible, but typical of a low miler, they all came undone as if they were fitted yesterday.
I'm going to see if it's salvageable, but I'm not holding my breath.
