Cx400C

[willk19]

I have just been given a 1986 honda CX400C. It needs a little work so I was wondering if anyone on here had any ideas on either where I could find good forks for it either that be cx400c forks or something that fits properly. I also will be needing break calipers so if anyone knows where I could get some would be appreciated also. Any other input or suggestions greatly appreciated

Thanks heaps!

Check out Trademe, someone selling a few CX400 bits including the front forks and wheel.
CX500 Custom bits of the same year are the same.

Mount the motor in a ride on lawn mower.

Give econohonda in te aroha a ring - brilliant guys for finding parts

What do you plan to do with it? Pointless restoring as it would have minimal value - best to search CX500 café on Google for inspiration

It's not about the money value of this bike. Was given to me by my father and he has owned it since new so has huge sentimental value to me

Figured it might be like that. It would be worth searching Ebay for CX500C parts - be heaps over there with relatively low miles and they should be interchangeable with the 400.

K awesome as thanks bud. The forks just have a small indent in them but quite high well above where the shock would run to so need to find out if that's safe haha

Forks can be re chromed or e-mail these guys for a quote - I did some years back on a older jap bike and the tube price was good including shipping to NZ. Worth a e-mail.

Join the Aussie and USA CX forums, full of info and help full experts on these. The wiki is also full of info.

Keep in mind yours is the later versions, the chassis is quite different from the early ones early = 78-82

Awesome thanks for the info mate

Make it look like a Moto guzzi v7 racer. Call it the faux guzzi v4.

CX500 Custom bits of the same year are the same.

there were no 500's the year of the 400C
The 400C is the same as the 650C, the engine the same as the 400E

Swt so forks etc from the 650C should be the same?
