This 400F was locally owned with 26,497 miles on it. The gauges were nice but show the typical white line so I had the gauges rebuilt to start with 0 as I restored the entire bike. I took the bike down to the bare frame and had it beautifully deep gloss painted after it was thoroughly media blasted. Center stand, swing arm and other pieces were also painted. The parakeet yellow and black side covers were also painted at this professional body shop. The previous owner had replaced, not long ago, the tires and genuine Honda right handlebar switch and seat.
This was the 10th CB400F that I have restored. I go through all the parts and paint, clean, buff, polish, or replace. I always use genuine Honda whenever possible including bolts, nuts, and washers. Even the parts that can't be seen are thoroughly detailed. The carbs were cleaned, valves adjusted, points adjusted, timing chain and timing were adjusted. This engine is the most smooth and the most quiet of any 400F I have ever heard. It just purrs without any noise. I replaced the front fender, the rear wheel , and spokes (the front wheel and spokes were very nice but the rears were not so nice), Interstate battery, horn, re-chromed taillight housing, petcock kit, master cylinder, brake hoses, brake caliper, piston and seal, Honda oil and filter, spark plugs, re-chromed chain guard, fork dust seals and oil seals, tool tray lid, shock nuts and washers plus many more. The compression is a perfect 150 even in all cylinders and right on according to the service manual. When removing the pan I found nothing but clean oil, no sludge or residue. This truly is a beautiful 400F that you will win awards if you show. It just shines in the sun and stands right out. Everything works as it should and there are no issues. Includes as new tool kit,original as new owners manual and two as new Honda keys. If you have any questions you can call me at (309) 253-2180. Buyer is responsible for shipping and costs. I can help to make arrangements. Federated Allied for shipping is really close to me; if you so choose, I can deliver to the warehouse. |

2013 Honda CBR250R Gets Repsol Edition
Tue, 04 Sep 2012American Honda announced a number of returning 2013 models with new color options but the most eye-catching of the new paint jobs is the Repsol-edition CBR250R. Dressed to resemble Casey Stoner‘s and Dani Pedrosa‘s Honda RC213V MotoGP race bikes, the 2013 Repsol edition Honda CBR250R sports the Spanish petroleum company’s orange with red and white colors, the Honda Racing Corporation logo and the “One Heart” motto of Honda’s Indonesian joint venture which also sponsors the MotoGP team. Completing the look are the Repsol-orange wheels.
Video: Honda Crossrunner v mountain pass
Fri, 01 Apr 2011This 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.
The future. But we can't have it
Thu, 10 Nov 2011It's no secret that we motorcyclists are getting older. We're ageing because less people are passing their bike test each year (roughly 30,000 last year compared to 50,000 for the 10 years before the new two-part test) and so not only is the pool not growing it's not even being replenished and so the average age isn't being diluted down by yoof. When the going gets tough in any situation, you really get to see who's got their shit-sorted and who's light enough on their feet to adapt to change.
