Germantown, New York

1975 Honda CB400F. This is an early production bike, #4366 off the assembly line. Valves recently adjusted, Carbs cleaned, fresh oil & filter. KONI shocks & Proggressive fork springs, Metzler tires are in good shape for many more miles. DYNA coils and eltronic ignition, no points. Bar end mirrors and seat cover are after market items. The seat has a small, 1/2", tear, a minor shop incident that did not involve any other parts. The seat foam is new and a big improvement over stock. The muffler is also an after market slip on, the header is original. The stock air box is in place, but I've installed a washable oiled foam air filter. The front brake rotor has been drilled. I've put most of the 33+ thousand miles on the bike, and done all regular maintenance. It starts easily with one kick and settles into a nice, even idle. Sounds very inoccent at idle but has an intoxicating howl from 6,000 rpms up. As addicting as this bike is, I've decided to let it go to some one (probably younger than I) to enjoy for the next 33km. Please note, this is not a showroom left over. Far from it. It is a very well loved, polished, patinaed, slightly modified, classic bike that handles like the hand of god. Tellepathic even. So different from the elephant wrestling handling of the 750's. At 390lbs. it is a joy to flick into corners. Thanks for checking out my ad and happy motoring!
