[sawyercb1emsworth]

hi i have a cb1 400 nc27,had it for about a year now and cant find much info on modifications for this bike
or other bike model parts that may fit my bike.....any 1 no much about this?

If it's bolt on parts you're looking for, you won't find much on the market I'm afraid. Fireblade forks can be made to fit quite easily same with various braced swingarms with fatter rubber but it's mainly a looks thing on road bikes as the CB-1 is quite capable in its standard guise. Save your money for a nice paint job or exhaust might be the way to go.

There is plenty of info on this site about mods for the CB-1.  Its an old bike so you are not going to find things as if you had a more modern bike.

thanks all for replys,dont think the bike is ready for a meet yet,
in need of a few cosmetics as iv hit the tarmac a few times.......i have noticed a web site that a guy has a uprated cdi unit! is this worth getting?

Forge the CDI units. They allow over revs according to the boys at 400greybike an they've seen a few v4 engines go bang.

If you want it faster get nc23 cams and start tuning with 116 dynojet mains with removed washers from the needles. That won't be fuelling perfect but it's a good start and should take you from about 45 to comfortably over 50hp with a race can.
