I found this picture when I was scrolling through my photos this morning.
I bought this Honda CB400N brand new in June 1980 and sold it in April 1982. It had a Moriwaki 2-1 pipe, black chromed, 425cc oversized Moriwaki pistons and a Moriwaki cam.
The speedo was marked to 180km/h and the tacho redlined at 10,000rpm. On a good day I could run both dials into unmarked no-man's land.
This picture was taken at a stop on the way to Durban on holiday one year. This was a 600km ride in those days, and this trip was 2 up. My wife and I went on a 2 week holiday with everything you see in this picture!
I still have the open face helmet tied on top of the pack although I don't wear it.
