Hi:
I need a pair of carb insulators for a 1980 Honda CB400t. I guess
honda stopped making these a couple of years back and I am having a
devil of a time finding them. Does anyone know where I might look?
Thanks,
--Alex D

Hi Alex,
If you're in the UK you could try David Silver Spares
(www.davidsilverspares.com), very good for new-old-stock for a lot of Honda
bikes, I've used 'em a few times for CB550F spares. They might well ship
overseas, don't know what shipping charges would be like, though.

David Silver is a good idea if you absolutely can't get it in the USA.
Before you accept the word of your local dealer that the part cannot be
ordered, call Service Honda (http://www.servicehonda.com ) and ask them
if they can order part number 16211-413-750. If they can't get it,
nobody can.
