It’s been a very productive day with the build almost complete. I got pretty much everything re-assembled. I was amazed that after a couple of priming kicks with the key off once I turned the key on it started first kick. Chuffed!

New bike-Honda GB400TT
I’ve always really liked the look of these and when one came up for the right money I couldn’t resist. It’s a 1987 model with 48,000 Km’s. It had been sitting under a lean too at Lyall Bay for 5 years and as a result there is some corrosion. Most bits will clean up ok though. Fresh gas, oil and filter change, front brake caliper overhaul and new brake fluid and it’s good to go. Everything works, lights etc, I just need to buy a pair of tires and it will be ready for compliance and re-registration. It rides really well, very torquey and quite peppy compared to the little CB and CG.
