Hi Folks,

I'm about to acquire a '77 CB400F, last used about 2 years ago, when it was driven from Birmingham to Aberdeen and back (with no problems) It's the one in my avatar, but without the ridiculous 'screen  -  I might fit a smaller, tidier one shortly.

I've inherited the bike from the family of an ol' Rocker pal of mine from the 60s & 70s  -  it was his last bike.

I've a few others as well.  (I'm a Beemer man, really) '08 K1200LT, '07 G650 XCountry, '90 Kwak GTR1000+Hedingham XL, and a '52 Francis Barnett, so the little Honda will just add to the variety  ;)

No doubt I'll have some daft questions shortly........

Thanks for having me,

Cheers, StClair.

Welcome and seems the perfect model to fit within your herd of bikes.

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of it's victim may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated, but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." - C.S.

Thank ye kindly, sir.

It should be here on Friday, all being well  -  should have it running over the weekend, and tested a few days after that.
Mebbe an oil change before I start playing with it.........

'Herd', eh? I was thinking 'flock'  ;)

Cheers, StClair.
