Bandit 400 .. SHE IS COMPLETE.

[P.]

Basically aiming to get this sucker painted in white...and running.

Then either sell it or take it to Spain. It cost me nothing aside from £20 in fuel to pick it up, so its all a bonus for me!

Here are the current photos and how far I've got

Exhaust system isn't too bad

Friends of friends.

Pretty awesome sometimes, I seem to have had my share of bad luck in the past. Now I get some good luck thrown at me

[orac]

looks pretty clean, however the oil line that goes up behing cylinder 3\4 is routed incorrectly, it should outside of the intake on cylinder 4 (the same as cylinder 1).

also missing rear hugger which where fitted standard

Yeah, the rear hugger issue... was why I'm a bit sceptical about the poor CDI

1 of the easiest so far, other was an enduro, you basically undo the seat and tank, bare frame.

Got a needle coming from HD... so hopefully I can fire this slag up.

[Pol Anorl]

Go on to Japanese Google and search for Japanese shops that'll sell the parts? Pay shipping to UK and wait a decade for arrival?

Have you tried Crooks Suzuki?? They have a classic parts section and I got some OEM gaskets... You might find carb parts in stock too. Give them a ring.

i have just noticed, you dont seem to have a vacuum tube from intake 1 either.

mine decided it didn't like having the nipple in the intake anymore at one point, i had a spare intake so wasnt a problem, you maybe able to repair that one with some good quality sealant but dont hold me to it

For the fuel tap?

[orac]

yep, if you are going to use a gravity you will have to block the how in the intake

have the whole in the intake where the niple for the take off should be will make it very hard to start and if it does in it will run like crap (been there done that). so make sure you block it up while setting the carbs up and getting the thing running - wish i had noticed it before, may have saved you some trouble with carbs.

I've got a set of B4 carbs sitting in my shed, came off a running bike but have been off the bike for a few years.

PM me if you need them or parts from them.
