New member from Tennessee
« on: May 06, 2024, 02:00:33 PM »
Hey everyone,

We have a CB400f that is my wife's first bike. It's been sitting a while but I got it up and running but have a few questions. I have been wearing out the search feature!

Thanks,

(dim headlight is on the list  ;D)

Welcome to the forum!
The dim headlight coukd be the result of multiple things.
Start button, fuse block, bad connections are all common culprits.
A nice upgrade is to install a relay so the juice comes directly from the battery.
