hi guys, my internet here in China is terrible so searching is difficult.

but is there a fuel filter on the 2002 CB400?

I've seen reference to a fuel tap filter and inline fuel filter but no part number.

Would anyone happen to have these? and how often do these need to be replaced or cleaned? any DIY threads?

thanks!

Orgiginal stock bike do not have..it's additional. This thing is not necessary unless your fuel kiosk petrol is always dirty or contaminate with rust residues. This fuel filter may be less helpful than more sometimes especially when it clogs.

[Q] Hi guys, anyone knows can fireblade rims fitted into super 4 spec 3?

[S.Centauri]

I have the same problem too. I just posted asking the same question.

 

The bad news is CDI for vtec 1 no longer in production, i was told the only way to go is to convert to vtec 2 or 3 CDI which means the meter key will have to be replaced and its going to cost at least $2k.

 

Hi, i'm facing the same issues, spec 1 too..

Did u managed to find any solution? Anyone else can share their expertise as to what the causes might be?

Hello, I am writing from Spain and I have a CB400SF vtec spec1 2001 with 66.880km.

Few kilometers until you can hold the engine?

 

Here there are not many bikes like mine so I can not compare but if there are many CB600F hornet and CBR600F from different years of 100,000km passing easily

 

For there in Singapore and Japan there CB400SF vtec passing of 100,000km?

If so is there any website where I can see pictures of Speedo?

 

Thank you

 

a greeting

Not sure why you wanna see an Odometer with that kind of mileage clocked and why would anyone wanna show that really. I doubt you can find one but can always try.

Hi Guys,

I have a superfour spec II. Am planning to service and get the following;

 

a) change brake pads (front & rear)

b) spark plugs - either NGK or Denso

c) flush radiator & add Engine Ice

d) OWS 210, 220 & 360

e) K&N Air Filter

 

Can anyone advise me on the price or have any suggestions? Thank you.

whats the cost to overhaul or even fully rebuild a version s. looking at the market and some are expiring in less than one year?

[Ah Pek]

There is no such things as a "fixed price" for a bike overhaul job. Labor is intensive and so are spare parts acquisition which account for search and travelling time and such. Labor cost may be fixed at a few hundred to thousand in dollars but the again..if only dismantling and assembling is smooth sailing. Parts replacement prices varies..the harder to find parts would surely cost more. The other thing is that you would never know how much it's gonna cost in actual for a bike to be done because the uncertainty of what is damage or need to be replace parts are not seen till the bike is open up from engine to crank case.

 

So if you sum all the above..most mototiam would guess their prices..easily around $1.5k to $3.5K for a Super4 Ver S...the more torok the bike..more expensive (buyt not necessary) from sound to outlook base on external assessment only.

 

Nothing last forever but if u want to keep your bike for a few years more..there are better ways of course without spending so much.

 

PM me if you need any further advise.

Nothing to do with ignition..if there is, ur bike can't even start to crank and nothing to do with IU (it's always connected direct and has its own fuse). Ok..what fuse did you checked?
