Found my dad’s rare 80s Honda in the garage and brought it back to life.
I recently found something crazy in my dad’s garage — his old Honda CB400N Super Dream that he used to ride back in the 80s. The wild part is Honda never officially launched this bike in India and from what I’ve learned only around 10–20 units were privately imported, so it’s insanely rare to even see one here. It had been sitting abandoned for years covered in dust with dead tires, faded paint, messy wiring and missing indicators, basically forgotten. I decided to bring it back to life, did a full mechanical service to get it running properly again, repainted it, fixed the electricals, added new indicators and refreshed everything that had aged, and now it runs beautifully. Honestly feels surreal riding such a rare bike that my dad rode decades ago.
Would love to hear if anyone else here has seen a CB400N in India 👀
