75 CB400 "Dad's old bike" project
Pops400:
Yes, that's pretty much the way I am looking at it, Mike. 8)

I used some pipe lagging to cover the frame tubes and then installed the rebuilt bottom end into the frame before assembling barrels and head on the bike - makes the engine refit a much lighter job !
An exciting time when things start to go back together and the 'to do list' starts to get shorter !

Pops400:
Sounds an interesting way around it, Andy. I'm a good way off yet, so plenty of time to plan it.
Pops400:
Managed to get some more time to get the frame stripped today. Frustrating day all round, but did get done.
First of the dumb questions - I assume this is simply a steering lock, but with no keys and not having a bloody clue what I'm doing, how the hell do I get it out? Didn't seem any obvious way and nothing in the manual that I could find. (Not that surprised as it's for security, I guess...)

The lock is held in by the domed head rivet and the washer. Try removing the rivet with wire cutters or pincers, save for re use. Once that's out of the way you need the key to remove the lock. As you haven't got one then you'll have to drill it out. Take care not to snap the bit.
