Take this as an opportunity to upgrade it to a newer more reliable type.
The search bar is your friend. It's well documented.

I got one of these http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Honda-cb400-c ... 4606c4533b about 18 months ago from this seller, as best I can tell it's not a cheap and cheerful one that'll be something you regret buying, although you can apparently get chunkier ones too, and on other threads people suggest using one from certain years of Yamaha R6 (although you'll presumably need to butcher the connector, assuming it hasn't been fried due to corrosion).

A lot of people say the stock one is weak, however my bike had it replaced in 2001, I got the bike in 2003 and covered about 55000kms in all weathers and temperatures before it gave up the ghost in March 2011. Perhaps I was just lucky.
