For a 89' CB400F, better known as the CB-1.
Anyone know a good place to find one or four actually?
I've not had any luck on-line in any of my searches. :banghead:

I would see if you can find a bike specific forum for your model... then troll the for sale threads to see if anyone is parting their bike out. Might be easier to find a replacement carb bank than to try and rebuild them.

Check out some of these honda forums... hopefully one of them can help you find what you're looking for, or maybe they can direct you to an entire carb bank.

During my searching I also found these guys... they might have the parts you need. Give 'em a ring!!

Void,

Also check out this link... It was posted on that classic honda forum, and has links to the CB400F owner's manual, shop manual, and tons of other stuff that may be of use to ya.

Thanks again dude.
I was checking out that manuals link this morning and everything is for the older CB400's. It sucks is hard to find stuff for the newer model.

If you're just looking for new gaskets and orings, go to bikebandit.com.

I had a quick look, and I think it was about $23 per gasket set. And you can probably get the part numbers there and check prices elsewhere.
