[QUOTE="Tory, post: 56366, member: 64"] About this time last year I discovered a 75 CB400F hiden away in a goat barn near here. It had been abandoned 15 years ago and was not put away well.Aside from all the goat crap crambed in every oriface,it had a ripped seat,rotted tires stuck carbs and cables a door bell button starter and toggle switch ignition.Plus buck horn bars,poor fitting rear rack,highway pegs and a whole list of stuff a Super Sport shouldnt. I spent most of the winter cleaning it up,touching it up where I had to,polishing where I could,replacing all the rubber,cables,hoses and sourceing correct bars as well as reproduction tires and seat cover.Replacing the wiring harness,rebuilding the carbs and suspension.More of a revival than a restoration. This is the finest riding bike I have ever riden.Perfect and smooth in everyway.Thinks its a two stroke though.A real rever!But the six speed makes up for that. I am happy to say all my hard work paid off today as it just recieved 1st place (300cc-600cc) at the GILMORE MUSEUMS "Classic Motorcycle Show" today. [url=https://www.GilmoreCarMuseum.org]https://www.GilmoreCarMuseum.org[/url] This is one of the largest and finest shows in this area and I am very proud. [/QUOTE]
