Honda bros nt400 bits wanted

[Toledo]

Hi guys, looking for a set of Honda bros nt 400 forks in good shape, mine are slightly bents and it's bugging me... Also a new set of cush drive rubbers too if anybody has them

If nobody has the parts then a cross reference of what else will fit would be handy?

Cheers

Assume you have asked this guy if he has forks for sale.

[Toledo]

Yup, tried him. Asked the question on his auction just before I started this thread.

Surely the NT400/650 share the forks with another more common Honda?

Nope, they don't even share forks with their US counterpart.

Seriously???

So if i cant find forks in NZ for a nt400/650 im screwed?

What else can be modded to fit easily??

[husaberg]

Ebay lists fork tubes, Which is why I am assuming you think you need new forks?
Plenty of other Honda forks or front ends could be made to fit. But I doubt there is a bolt on solution.
The Bros are a neat bike.

I think the wheels and forks on the Jap ones are different from the Hawks.

Easy (relatively) mod you're looking at a front end swap, wheels, forks, triple clamps etc. CBR600f3 (?iirc) is popular. Go onto the hawkgtforum and have a search.

Yup, hawk has a floating caliper, bros a floating disc.

Isn't the forks smaller too more NSR250 CBR400 size? anyway if it is pitted fork tubes just sand and glue em. Till you find a cheap set OP

Yeh could be, probably different triple tree offsets though.

Yeah bet the stem length is odd ball too. Maybe if the OP actually gave us some measurements of his forks I have the fork sizes and lengths and axel sizes on KB somewhere.
that ohio café racer stuff.

I know an NC30 front end will go into a 650 Bros - but the bigger question, begging the owner's pardon, is whether it's worth saving a 400 Bros at all....

Thought you said RC30 for a minute.......... although I think Erion racing ones had a set of ex joey Dunlop forks.

The tubes from a U.S. Hawk GT will work. You have to change them out since the lower are different. I also have a BROS 400 I will sell for $3500 U.S. It is the Pgm model.

Ok, got the parts in to do the Cush rubbers... Now i need a 46mm socket

Anyone in Auckland with rattle gun, a torque wrench and a 46 mm socket that can give me a hand? Doz beers in it for you.
