1976 Honda CB400F · Shock Absorbers Buying guide

Pick the length that matches how you measured

If you measured eye-to-clevis, compare that number with 335mm. If you measured center-of-eye to clevis, compare it with 321mm. Do not subtract the difference and call them the same shock.

Washer note on the 321mm eye

The 321mm set says the top eye is 20mm wide and that some models need extra washers at the mount. Check the mount before you assume the eye fills it.

Sets that do not name this Supersport

The 290mm shorty sets do not name the CB400F. The 336mm chrome set is described as the stock match for a CB750K 1972-76. Leave those out unless the fitment line you are reading actually names this bike.

Shock questions

Which length is stock?

The 335mm set is labeled stock length and is measured eye to clevis. The 321mm set is labeled stock type and is measured from the center of the top eye to the clevis. They are two different listings, so match the way you measured.

How many preload positions?

Four on the 335mm set. Five on the 321mm set. The original shocks had three positions, and the 321mm set has five.

Are the mounting nuts included?

No. The nuts replace 90309-315-000, and one bike uses two. Joint rubbers are another set of two, replacing 52484-292-000.
