    Hi, Radar.
    I’ve been going to club race meets spectating for 20 yrs, my mates have raced, some successfully!
    I nearly bought a track 87 VFR400 at the end of last season, but hesitated and the guys friend bought it,now I’m sick as although the guy isnt going to win anything he’s having the time of his life.
    I was intending doing a CBR600’87 but that steelie class seems to be full of later, faster CBR’s.
    I have a lot of Jelly spares, and was selling/swopping them.
    I had the chance to get a load of Nc23 bits from someone who puts CBR600 motors in 400 cbrs.He offered me the makings of a bike.
    I am very experienced mechanically, and have access to an engineering workshop.
    There is a manual here but when I try to download it it stops at 32 mb, its 52, a pdf

    I have been told the Haynes 3552 covers it but I see its for later models.
    Parts manual.
    I need to see where the pipes and brackets/fiddly bits go. go.

    For bits try David Silver Spares, a well respected independant Honda specialist

    There was a big article about the place in Sept 2010 edition of CMM and they hold a large selection of manuals apparently

    Could you keep us updated on your progress, following builds is always popular on here. Be good to see how you progress and how the season goes in 2011

    Thanks, Radar, didnt know DSS kept manuals.
    I do buy bits from them but WEMOTO are sometimes half the price.

    Benji, zxr400’s are not eligible for Forgotten era, but yes probably the best 400 track bike.

    I’m going to do local meets, when time allows, as I work a lot of weekends, not looking to win anything, the class is full of ex-racers doing it on the cheap, but hopefully have a laugh and a few good races with similar minded people.

    Well, Im starting out with nothing, hopefully I’ll have some of that left at the end,,,,,LOL
    Will keep you posted.
    Still need bits.
    Don

    I am not sure if the manuals are for sale or reference, but they should be able to give you advice if nothing.

    I notice you are from Berwick, I have family in the NE (Morpeth/Alnwick). Great part of the world with some great biking roads. I am often up there but usually in the car which is frustrating sometimes!
