Thats great dave thanks.

If I could get a shot of the neck between the triple trees?

Trying to remember how the wiring routing goes after it comes out from under the tank.

Awkward place to take a photo, this may help you more if not let me know…by the way your 400 is very nice.

Dave

Brilliant Dave.

That was exactly what I needed.

Just brilliant

Thanks.

Lookin' good. I like those tank badges.

RM81 · « **Reply #56 on:** August 08, 2008, 01:27:18 PM »

So did you get it finished? I just read through this and can't wait to see the outcome.

kghost · « **Reply #57 on:** August 08, 2008, 04:41:29 PM »

HaHA...it will never be finished....was all a cruel joke....

Just kidding...went on vacation before the chrome came back.

Almost done...maybe tomorrow first ride.

Wow, that's probably the best wiring diag. I've seen, was that a Honda manual?

Yeah it helped me ...more a routing than wiring diagram...but dave rocks.

Where'd you get the tank badges? Those are awesome. The bike is looking great. Love the color.

Great way to remember your old Wing...Looks like a mini version of it almost..

Hush · « **Reply #64 on:** August 12, 2008, 12:55:55 AM »

Damn that is one mint seat, is it new or recovered?
Whole bike is a credit to you.

SWEET!

heffay · « **Reply #67 on:** August 12, 2008, 06:29:10 AM »

looks great!

where'd your rock chip end up or is that a big secret?

so, did you polish all those bits yourself?

imamotohead · « **Reply #68 on:** August 12, 2008, 08:43:30 AM »

Looks awesome! Dumb question - How did you attach the Tank Badges?

Well I was going to add cups and nutplates into the tank.....however in the end I couldn't bring myself to cut up a decent stock tank. So 3M double sided emblem tape to the rescue.

The rock hit the speedo. Really made me wanna cry.

All the parts were polished with a harbor freight buffer.

Thanks for all the kind words.

Very nice, love the color and the bike all around.

What's up with your center-stand?! It has your rear wheel like 6" off the ground!

Dunno...its not that far off the ground.....

Driveway slope or optic illusion?

It might be the slope of the driveway? My CB350F rear wheel when on the center stand barely leaves the ground. I thought maybe you had short shocks. Might be a design difference as well because I know the CB400 and CB350F have a different kickstand as well.

Anyways, thanks for the info. Your bike looks great.

BlindJoe · « **Reply #73 on:** August 13, 2008, 01:38:06 PM »

Nice Job!! That Harbor Freight buffer isn't the best but it sure gets the job done once you get to know it.

fastbroshi · « **Reply #74 on:** August 13, 2008, 08:18:48 PM »

Beautiful pipes. I think the 400's and the 550's have some of the nicest looking pipes ever made, very graceful.
