...and what bike hehe!!!

A red sexy Honda CB 400 Super Four "Project Big one"...:P
Smooth, light, not too high (my foot touch the ground!! crazy lol), sensitive throttle, and character!!!

Need some deep cleaning and it will be perfect :D
So happy!!!

Almost one year I'm waiting to buy a replacent of the ER5 that I left in France hehe

Now, need to ride it :p:p:p:p:p:p

See you at MotoTT on the 26th, then. Pegs down, you reckon?

Whoah!!! Like, a full-on 1970s CB400F Supersport? Surely not? That's one of my most favourite bikes in the whole world :love:

Or is it a modern CB400 Super Four? The reincarnation, still a lovely piece of work.

Either way, great taste :yes:

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you xerxesdaphat, also known as the boy who, when asked by his kindergarten teacher what he wanted to be when he grew up, replied "a curmudgeon".

*Whoooosh*!!!

The noise of a joke flying waaaay over my head

Dude, that tank, those headers (http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=71429&d=1190430902).... :drool:

But I think we're talking about a modern 1990s-2000s Super Four (http://world.honda.com/factbook/motor/motorshow/200110/img/09_p03.jpg), no?

Purty = Pretty. Mis-spelling comes from the way it's often pronounced in moviews featuring characters from the US deep south.

Molten Cammies. Cammies = Camouflage clothing. Molten refers to the Draggin Jeans colour of camo gear worn by a certain KB member. Looks a little like this:
