I had this happen on a CB200. It turned out that the chain was too streched to re-tention so your bike could need a new cam-chain. take the rocker box cover...

Man, you're hittin' all the stuff I'm familiar with on this one! Not all that much, but you're getting to 'em one by one. Dying when put into gear is almost...
Hi everyone, this is my first post on here. Trying it out because I need help! I was recently gifted a '79 cm400a that had been sitting outside for 5+years in...
I have a orange and black 1978 hondamatic hawk 400 that I would like to sell. The bike has a little over 4000 original miles and has a clean title. I've only...

does anyone know where I can get a luggage rack for my 81 CM400A ? Is ebay my only option ? (bidding against all you guys :-) I am looking for the version...
Hi, Honda, as well as after market manufacturers made luggage racks for these bikes. I got an original OEM Honda luggage rack for my 1978 CB400A on eBay. Good...

1981 CM400A left side plastic cover. Preferrably Candy Sword Blue, but will take anything, in any condition right now just to cover the electronics from the...
I bought a 78 CB400A and the carbs have been rebuilt on it, but the carb on the left side of the bike still leaks gas through the overflow tube when the bike...
Ten to one you have a "sticky float". To verify, rap on the affected carb's float chamber with the HANDLE of a medium-sized screwdriver. Give it a few good...
I never had a bike with these before, nor do I have a service manual, so I am at a loss as to why the forks do not hold air. Do these forks still have fork oil...

Hi Allen, To the best of my knowledge these bikes never had air in the front forks. If you are going to work on the bike I strongly recommend you get a shop...
I have the same air adjusters on my stock 81 400a matic. Mine seem to hold air fine. Their must be an oring or seal inside that is leaking. LOL Jonathan...
this is a 1981 CM400A, and it most certainly has an air valve cap on the top of the right fork tube, that has a connecting hose that goes over to the left fork...
No, no - definitely NOT just messin' with you. I've never seen a 400 Hondamatic other than my two (which don't have air forks), and the Honda "Model...
there is a 1980 or 1981 CM400A on ebay right now, and they show a fairly decent picture of the handlebar / dash area, and you can see them. I know that the...
Thanks Ken, I've tried the "screwdriver whack" and sometimes it seems to work and other times it doesn't. I'm almost considering figuring out a way to hookup...

I just bought my hondamatic 400, 1981. My first bike and I LOVE IT!! however, I am curious about the idle. It is idling really high after it is warmed up....
I just got mine too. I put NGK Iridium spark plugs in it (DR8EIX) and ordered a K&N filter for it. Thinking about a new chain, and plug wires (or ends only I...
