Hello from a new 440F owner
« on: August 10, 2018, 01:51:46 PM »
Hey all,

I've been reading here for a bit and finally have access to my bike, so I'll introduce myself.

I work for Honda in Columbus, OH and just inherited this 75 400F from my mom, who last rode in in '81 according to the registration.  Its been in garages/covered since then, but a few weeks ago, they brought it from SE PA to me so I could get it moving again.
Here's when it first arrived.  Originally Ruby Red I believe.

Welcome from Lake Superior,

Put some oil in the cylinders and replace the battery then let us know if it still can turn over.  Or search the threads for more complete directions.  ;)
