Honda CB description

Nice CB400F rider.  This bike had sat for many years and I purchased it as a winter project. I'm a retired multi-line motorcycle mechanic. 

The service I completed includes: new tires, chain, sprockets, battery, points, plugs, valve adjustment, cam chain adjustment, new front brake hose, rebuilt master cylinder, rebuilt caliper with new piston and pads, Accel coils and spark plug wires, oil and filter. The fork seals were replaced and the tubes have no rust or pitting.  The rear shocks were replaced with OEM. The carbs were ultrasonically cleaned and new jets installed to compensate for the pod filters.

The tank is like brand new with no scratches, dings, scuffs or dents.  It is Caswell coated.  The seat is NOS and perfect. The muffler is a reproduction of the original and new.

All of the wiring connections were pulled apart, inspected and cleaned.  I replaced the connector and pins from the alternator with OEM as they were corroded which is a common issue with these bikes.  The charging system works perfectly.

Includes the OEM airbox and a new air filter.

Everything works as it should.

The wheels and straight and the chrome on them is good.  The fender chrome is cloudy as typical for old Japanese bikes.  It also has a little rash on the headlight rim and the tach as shown in the photos.  It's not bad rash and the gauge works perfectly.

I rode this bike about 100 miles since servicing it and now it's time for my next project.  It's fun to ride and handles great.

Someone is Takin' the Mick

Thu, 30 Sep 2010

Pull out the slippers and plant yourself in front of a log fire and let Mick Grant talk you through his racing career. With a foreword from our Whit', the book details Granty's life from his Yorkshire roots through to all of his seven TT wins and the intense rivalry with Barry Sheene in the 1970s. Don't judge the book by it's cover, it's not a disaster like the out-of-focus oval-pistoned Honda NR500 but a good read.

Video: Honda Crossrunner v mountain pass

Fri, 01 Apr 2011

This road (the one in the video) was a previously unseen, super-steep mountain pass which needed first gear for the hairpins and second between them with an occasional grab at third on the quicker sections. It was the sort of road that pumps up your forearms and makes you crane your neck to see what's coming next (mainly cyclists). The surface was rubbish.

Rossi Finishes Second to World Champion Loeb at Monza Rally Show

Mon, 28 Nov 2011

Valentino Rossi is back on the podium. Not a MotoGP podium, mind, but for a rally car race at the Autodromo Nazionale Monza in Italy. (Post updated with video.) Driving a Ford Fiesta RS with co-driver Carlo Cassina, Rossi won two of nine stages and finished second overall to eight-time World Rally Car Champion Sebastien Loeb at the 2011 Monza Rally Show.
