cb400f engine swap?
« on: April 15, 2007, 02:21:41 PM »
I'm wondering if anyone knows if a 73 cb500f engine would fit into my 75 cb400f frame? 
Any info or sugestions would be great...

Also if someone has a cb400f motor in complete running condition with good compression they are looking to sell let me know

400 frame too small for a 500 motor unless you do majour cut and weld work
Semi Geriatric ex-Honda mechanic and MOT tester (UK version of annual inspection). Garage full of "projects" mostly 500/4 from pre 73 (no road tax in UK).
