Not been Around for a while but been slowly getting through this build life moving and jobs all keep getting in the way of pushing for the finish but her is how my little cb400n sits at the moment https://ibb.co/1GHsyYT https://ibb.co/FHrjZPr https://ibb.co/mFX7qzp https://ibb.co/2kj96wk...

Not a lot to report back on got her back together at home and fitted a new chain and solid mounted the exhausts to the frame and head. and took some better photos on my dslr, have a new headlight glass and some bolts for chain adjusting now and the correct petrol cap for the tank after buying 2...

The frame wasn't done by me i sent it off to a guy in Scotland called Jim Strang of chopperzuk who has dont and does many of this type of frame he designed and did the frame job on his jig. reinforced the original parts and game it a 3 inch stretch and a 2 inch drop on the rear axle. thanks for...

this is how she sits on her on two wheels after all the welding was finished bar the foot controls she is now back in my garage waiting to be finished off befor powder and paint Kyran

small update from some work we managed to get done. we had planned to try and get everything done in a day, a bit ambitious maybe but we felt good about what needed doing, Finish off the frame welding/tidying, make weld mounts and new petrol tap bungs into the tank and make some gusset plates to...

Cheers guys at the moment im on a tight deadline to make the brighton burn up run in september so the main focus is to get everything done to make it a rider and then finish off any left over aesthetic jobs, my plan was to black out the engine and polish the fins to start with but im using a...

Wow reviving my own thread, so I didn't touch her in 2 years fell out of love and ran out of money. Stated again this weekend and moved a lot closer. Pics to follow if there's still interest. Kyran

got a little bit done today mostly getting the battery tray to fit up with the rear brake linkage, and given me a position for the pegs that i find comfortable and workable Ignor the large plates and muliple holes and bar these are just prototypes to let me get the pegs into position they...

Good work so far. I think everyone starts out with a figure in mind, so far I've more than doubled mine and will probably double it again still.

Thanks notlob, even if one guy takes an interest in the bike I will keep on posting up on this thread. she's a labour of love and the top coats of paint are already picked and brought once the welding is done and the rear light an number plate mounts are in I can start getting powder and paint...

Re: Cb400n hardtail build from the uk. Been on holiday for a week now ands having major withdrawal from the bike and still have a week left then hopefully I can get up to the bike and prep the tank for welding.

Have all but the tank welded up now it all needs dressing up and blending in to go yet, over 150 views and only one reply either this bike has offended everyone or its another cb400n and everyone is sick of them...... Gissmo

I kept looking at it and i wasn't happy with the rear wheel width or size i wanted it slightly wider and it was on This forum looking through other build threads i found the solution and i set about looking for a Cm400 16" rear wheel that had the ability to fit a 130 width tire and give the bike...

So ive been lurking in the back ground for a while now maybe even a year or two and i still haven't started a build thread of my own although i quite a way into my build of a 1970 cb400 superdream hardtail bobber. This is how she looked the day i got her about 2 years ago she didn't run...

Re: Frame Brazing That would be the dresda frames your on about that are all bronze brazed, brazing isn't so much welding as you don't melt the two pieces together to form the bond, you use a bronze rod to effectively glue them together. If done right its very strong and looks quite nice. Sent...

You don't have to touch the balance chain at all, to split the Cass yo have to remove the flywheel and stator, the oil pump chain and the clutch hardest part for me was removing the clutch needs a special tool but you can make one from a socket. Inc those are off you turn the engine over and...

Yeh the only station they took out was the clutch case being machined on the out side its still had the holes on the inside of it if you had the tools you could machine out the kick shaft seal and hole from the front nd you wouldn't need to find the clutch cover. Sent from my ARCHOS 80 COBALT...
