Welcome..i am a new member myself. Would you be able to post a pic of your handlebars? I am looking for a set of low profile bars and was told the CB400 bars are lower than my CB550?

Cheers!

Howdy!
Nice looking bike.  :)
It shouldn't take much to get it back on the road.
Be sure to check the tires. If they are from 1996 you're going to want to replace them.
Don't forget to stop in over here and say hi to these folks too!

Will do with the photo, of the bars, let me know what angle you need it taking from?

 Yes already on the UK forum.
