Topic: Earth 400/4

  Hi fellows my 400/4 seems to be going ok now Thanks for help and  suggestions. What I would like to do now is bring all my earth connections to one point. A friend who had a lot of Elec. faults on his CB750 done this and cured his problems He brought all earth wires to a junction box under the saddle and connected the box to the Batt earth point on the Engine, Where is the main earth point on the 400 or is there one.

In general, all the frame is ground (earth).  Battery (-) usually connects to a frame/engine mount bolt thus making the entire engine and frame into ground.  Any metal component bolted up to either frame or to engine thus also becomes grounded unless painted/rubber mounted/corrosion'd.  Go from there.

Thanks for reply I thought that there was a couple of points the Earth wires were brought to on the Frame

There may very well be.  I don't have one to know specifically.  I'm just talkin' in general for any motorcycle...
