It's time to Scramble!

My Honda CB400SS and its rebuild.

And she’s done! Really pleased with how the build went and the end result.

New exhaust

A bit of a delay as waiting for the seat to be finished, here's the rear mudguard though.

Battery Eliminator

Today I fitted the battery eliminator. Fired her up and it seems to be working great! Should save a little weight but more importantly space.

Just awaiting the seat, rear end chop, indicators and plate mount.

[cb400ss-build-blog]

Front all sorted. I really need to tidy the garage

[cb400ss-build-blog]

Exhaust fitted and back on two wheels

[cb400ss-build-blog]

Coming together nicely!

Speedo in place

Liking the new bars very much. Beautifully made too!

[cb400ss-build-blog]

Rear wheel back on with new sprockets and chain fitted. :-)

[cb400ss-build-blog]

Oooh some goodies!

Smoothing the edges. I'm going to outsource the making and fitting of the cover to a local company.

Profile looks about right.

My wife's favourite knife! Don't tell!

Marking out the new seat height. No sense in wasting good foam and seat pan.
