1981 Honda CB400TB · Valvetrain Buying guide
An exhaust valve closes a combustion-chamber port; a guide clip retains a valve guide. Keep those roles separate and base the replacement list on inspection of the valves, guides and seats.
Replacing a valve is part of a cylinder-head repair, not a substitute for checking the seat and guide. Have the head assessed for wear and damage before buying parts. The featured valve is identified for the exhaust position and must not be substituted for an intake valve.
Guide clips are sold individually. Count the guides being serviced and inspect their retainers rather than ordering by the number of cylinders. Keep spring hardware and valve-stem seals on the same inspection checklist, using position-specific references for any additional parts required.
It is the exhaust valve, referencing 14721-413-000. Intake and exhaust parts serve different positions; compare the fitted valve and head reference rather than ordering by the general CB400 engine label.
No. The featured guide clip is sold each. Order the number required for the guides being serviced after the head has been inspected and the repair scope is known.
Inspection first helps avoid an incomplete order. Valve condition, guide wear and seat condition affect the repair; a new valve alone may not address the cause of leakage or poor compression.
