400v front wheel and forks

Post by bikerben »

My 400 has leaky forks and a ding in the front rim :down:

I've got the forks out and am about to strip them down but have been unable to locate any seals yet as all the ones I've come across are for the UK model and I'm not sure if these are the right size for my mk2 ones??

Also someone told me that the front wheel from the mk1 600 Bandit fits the 400 imports - anyone know if this is true? If so it makes locating a reasonably priced front wheel more achievable.

Cheers - Ben

Not 100% with the front wheel but my wheel isn't from a b4, as the speedo drive doesn't fit. However, it has got a speedo very similar to a b6, I am yet to buy one and see if it fits.

HTH :up:

There are loads of B4 front wheels for sale on ebay, they are generally cheaper than b6 ones.
The seals are a fairly common size used on loads of 41mm forks, if you take a seal to your local they will simply match it up as the dimensions are on the seal.

I've seen plenty of wheels for sale but as this is a cheap bike I'm trying to get it done for the cheapest possible prices.

Just got seals / dust seals etc from wemoto ;)
