Aoshima 1/12 Honda CB400F CB400FOUR '74 - Precise 1974 Replica

The Aoshima 1/12 Honda CB400F CB400FOUR '74 kit recreates the compact four-cylinder roadster with careful attention to silhouette and mechanical detail. It suits model makers focused on accurate period builds.

Significance of the CB400F in 1974

The 1974 CB400F was noted for its balance of performance and style, featuring a distinctive four-cylinder layout. This kit reflects those design highlights so collectors can study and display a faithful small-scale example.

Build Experience and Detail Level

Components are molded to portray engine casings, frame lines and body panels. Expect to invest time on paint and decals to bring out the kit's finer details; it is most rewarding for builders comfortable with intermediate to advanced assemblies.

How to Present Your Finished Model

Finished models look great on display stands or combined with workshop dioramas. The accurate 1/12 scale allows easy pairing with other road bikes or period props for a cohesive presentation.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/12
  • Material: High-quality plastic
  • Assembly Required: Yes
  • Paint: Not included
While not impossible for determined beginners, the kit contains fine parts and requires precision. Builders with some prior kit experience will find the process smoother.
Yes. The kit accepts aftermarket parts and custom painting. Common mods include chrome detailing, custom grips or alternate exhaust finishes to personalise the model.
Use metallic paints or chrome-effect lacquers designed for plastic. Careful masking and thin coats will produce the most convincing metal finishes.
Keep parts organised in labeled trays and protect painted components from dust with a temporary cover. Work on a clean, well-lit bench to avoid losing small pieces.
Decals are typical of plastic kits and require careful trimming, soaking and positioning. Use decal softener for curved surfaces to improve adhesion and appearance.
