Hello all, glad to be a part of the group. I've been riding for 50 years, just got my first Honda 4, a 1975 CB400f. Looking forward to good discussions.

Welcome aboard Tom
Where in NH are you? I'm in Milford. Do you get to the bike night in Milford on Wednesday nights? At Station 101. Tomorrow is supposed to be a good night. 
Is your 400 on the road?
If not bring one of your other bikes. We have a few vintage bemers there too. I'll be on my blue K5 750 or may be on a friend's 74 Noton 850 Comando.

I'm in Candia. Bike starts, stops and shifts but needs a few minor things resolved. First heard about the Milford show last week, haven't been yet. Probably next season at this point.

Have you met Anders(member here) he has a small shop in Candia? He makes a high output stator conversion for the CB750.

And Steve Blake of Honda Restoration (NOS Honda parts) in Pittsfield/Northwood off 107 near Jenness Pond. He has a couple of 400/4s for sale.
He might be having open house on Saturdays in October.
