  • This video is an up close look at the 1976 Honda CB400 Four that I purchased in August of 2022. It looks good, but it needs work.

      Thanks for the comment, and for subscribing! I hope you get a 400F. They all deserve good homes. Cheers!

    Well I just found a 1976 400 in yellow. it was in storage for 20 years. I'm stoked with this bike. Got it running but it still needs a lot of love. Cant hardly wait to watch your rebuild. Thanks for doing this.

    Great videos! I bought a new 1975 cb400f back in 1975 in the beautiful super high gloss red. I loved that bike, but alas ended up selling up after several years when I just didn't have time to ride it. I wanted to tell you that after a couple of years I took it back to the Honda dealer where I bought it to have some maintenance done and he told me that Honda have a service bulletin out that some of the cb400f bikes had a porosity issue on the cylinder which made it look like a leaking head gasket. Since mine had that issue they replaced the cylinder for free. It was like a recall that didn't get sent out to customers but they would fix if you brought it in (not cool Honda!). After they replaced it the mystery oil leak went away for good. Not sure if that is your bike's issue or not, but I wanted to pass that along to you. Thanks for taking me back to the good old days!

      Thanks for the comment! I'm happy to hear the video reminded you of some fond memories with your 400F.
      I have heard about the porosity issue in some castings, but I wasn't aware of the Honda bulletin. This very helpful info - thank you! I'll try to figure out if this is my problem when I get to work on it soon. Cheers!

    How much liters every 100km consume?

    That is minor stuff for a bike almost 50 yrs old

      That's true. It's all very minor compared to other bikes I've restored. Cheers!
