cb400sf parts compatibility

Post by peppiiino » Mon May 21, 2012 12:08 pm

Hi all,
I checked the radiator fan on my 92 cb400sf and it's not working

I'm finding very hard to get a radiator fan for the bike, do you know if the cb1's is the same??

or any other honda model that may use the same, or a similar but compatible one??
cb500? cbr400??

This might not be massively helpful, but just in case... are you sure it's the fan (i.e. not the temperature switch) which is faulty?

A previous owner on mine wired the fan straight up to a switch, so the fan doesn't come on automatically, but can be switched on using a switch on the bars.

Maybe your temperature switch has failed?

If you've tested already, please ignore me! Just thought it might be helpful as there were no other takers.

the first time i did the test it wasn't working

then i tried again and i found a good earth point and the fan went on :)

I opened another thread here because i want now to instal a manual switch, i'm thinking to put it right next to the fuel tap somehow..

Ah, fair play. I've just had a browse through your other post. I have mine next to the switch gear, and it's OK, but it is on a januty angle.

Must get round to moving it at some point. Just another job on the list ;)
