Hello from Birkenhead, England
« on: July 21, 2015, 02:18:38 PM »
I'm just starting a restoration of a 1975 CB400F. Although in the family since new it has lain unused in a damp garage for over 23 years and is looking sorry for itself. Myself and my eldest son are setting about restoring her to her former glory. The aim is to return her to stock as she was in 1975. This is the first time in 20 years I've touched a bike since the sale of my GL1100 Gold Wing when my daughter was born.  :)
