Chassis No. - CB400F1036380 M.O.T. - Exempt Odometer - 11,536 Presented in Light Ruby Red, this totally original early CB400F previously formed part of an American museum collection. Its odometer currently registers a modest 11,536 miles and the vendor classes the transverse engine, six-speed gearbox, frame and eye-catching paintwork as all being in ‘good’ order, and informs us that ‘a gentle recommission’ is all that stands between this handsome Honda and a return to the road. Produced from 1975 to 1977, the CB400F is memorable for the swooping four-into-one exhaust system that’s attached to its air-cooled, in-line, four-cylinder SOHC engine. The powerplant’s output of 37bhp was sufficient for the machine to cover the standing ¼ mile in 14.7 seconds and accelerate on to a top speed of around 104mph with the rider prone, or 93.5mph when seated normally.
