Honda CB400 Four motorcycle
This is a shot (colour slide) of my much loved CB400F taken in 1978 somewhere in the Cotswolds.
In those days we would explore the Cotswolds on this machine (wife riding pillion), with my camera gear packed away in the top box and panniers.
When it first came out this machine attracted quite a bit of attention, mainly due to the 4 into 1 arrangement of the exhausts. The Mk 1 version was available in blue or red and a later Mk 2 version was bright yellow or a plum colour. Although the bike was equipped with an electric starter a kick-start was also included which can be clearly seen. I remember the engine being very smooth and quiet. When ticking over you could barely hear it at all! Happy Days!
