Hi Steve,

Do you still have your Bomber ?

@ Kevin, thanks for the heads-up !
@BenelliSEI, I just read your sandcast thread ! nice !

I’ve read through all your post too. I bought my wife’s cb400F from a gentleman that was giving up riding too! What jolted me in your story is the guy was only three years older than me now. I need to get back to my projects!

The 400f is a work of art.

Is there a finished photo of the CB400f ?

No, it's still in my garage, waiting for better weather. As soon as it's dry and salt is washed away from the road, I'll take some shots 

Hi...yes, still have the Bomber!

Do you use it regularly ?  I use mine as much as possible, next to my CB72'64. With the CB400f I have a bike for longer, smoother rides, but the CB450 K0 is the bike for back lane's !

Last week her first ride, what a nice little bike to ride !

That does look great! Well done getting back to the rebuild and completing the job!
Yes the 400 is a fun bike to ride from my remembering.

The bike is finished, and I use it as a rider / commuter bike, next to the 450's and my CB72. I'm putting yearly an average of 10K km on the odo, never failed me, and generates a lot of smiles on my face but also from people in cars I overtake on highway rides. Sometimes they even open their window to enjoy the sound of the 8000-9000 rpm engine in fourth or fifth gear.
