Outstanding. Some excellent advice there.

score!!

You can lsit them in the for sale area on this site. Perhaps point to that listing on the Australia sub board? Or ebay? Or gumtree?

Welcome - I'll be following your build with interest!

If you stick a broomstick or similar down inside the fork, then you can usually apply enough pressure to be able to undo the hex bolt at the bottom. Also, do you have a grease gun? I've worked out very stubborn brake pistons using one. The thread on my gun is similar to the bleeder srew...

Re: 77' cb400f project getting underway. Looking good! Subscribed.

Welcome. Great bikes. Did you work out why it was seized? Sitting outside without carbs in the weather for a while will do it, but there are other potential reasons too. Good luck - (you might consider starting a build thread in that section of the site!)

Check the 400f yahoo forum - there is a rebuild guide there.

+1 all the above could be omitted, but since you're keen on the 466 then you will have to factor in machining. It ought not cost you $400 though - I had my 400 rebored at $60 per pot at peak outrageous Perth boom-town prices. My tensioner was seized, but I carefully filed the burs off and got...

The reg/rect combo unit looks the biz. Very similar (if not exactly the same ) as the ones DSS sells. Similar price too.

Neevo, there are aftermarket combination regulator/rectifier units for the 400f available from David Silver Spares and Oregon Motorcycle Parts. Hondaman (sohc4shop.com) also makes up blade-type fusebox units, but you may be inclined to get the bits and knock one up yourself.

Re: 1975 CB400F Project "I'll think of a name later I'm too excited at the moment" I'm in! This will be a good one - good luck!
