  3. Thank you sir. There's still more little jobs to do on it - charging system might not be working but doing some checks... (could be just me) - i put a meter on it last night and while its sitting at 12.7v at tickover if i rev it to about 2 - 3k it steadily climbs up to 12.9v....not the jump that i would see on my zed - blip that and it jumps to 13 or 14v...i did read that apparently lithium charging system are a bit more gentle... (mines got an aftermarket reg/rec specifically for a lithium battery) - i dunno - i might be making that up in my head...

    Set the throttle cable tension last night - no play in there now... lovely
    Ordered a couple of engine mount bolts for the engine (underneath) ordered some Ti ones - not for weight saving (as it is a motorized anville) but more because they stay nice and bright.

    Waiting for payday to order.....

    A new chain
    new fork tops (mine are all corroded) cheaper to buy new oem ones...
    Couple of engine mount bolts.
    Ti Nuts for the rear sprocket
    Speedo drive is missing a couple of bits as well...one of the lads on the Honda forum who lives near by has one...

  4. My old man had a CB400F1 the only brand new bike he ever purchased I believe. He had the Blue version, sold it to my Brother so he could buy a CX500…….
