Honda Cbr 400cc 2014 Nba

The Honda VFR400R NC30 is widely regarded as being a fine handling motorcycle. The engine has a very wide powerband for a 400cc engine, which made it a perfect beginners-superbike. It has a hardcore fanbase, especially in Japan and the UK, where the NC30 is a popular track-day and racing bike.
With the Honda CB400 Super Four to be discontinued at the end of October 2022, it was thought that the 4-cylinder 400cc models would simply disappear.
Kawasaki has a surprise in store for us, having just released the completely new ZX-4R/ZX-4RR this past July. What will Honda's response be?
Rumors of Honda's new 4-cylinder 400cc model have been around since before the CB400SF was discontinued, and have been reported frequently on Webike Plus. The story is that a 4-cylinder 500cc model is being developed in China, which will be converted to a 400cc model and introduced to Japan. This is expected to be the successor to the CB400SF.
And it appears that the development of a 4-cylinder middle class from China is continuing.
Kawasaki has released a 4-cylinder 400cc from Supersport but is also considering derivatives such as a naked model. Meanwhile, Honda's 4-cylinder 400cc is expected to be the successor to the CB400SF, but depending on the response to the ZX-4R in China, we expect a supersport model.
Although high-end brands such as Ducati have entered the Chinese market, sales trends are said to be slowing down. In the future, it will be important to expand the user base not only for high-end models but also for beginners, and the 400cc class is currently the focus of attention.
I rode a Honda Bros 400cc for my motorbike lessons when I first learned to ride and was so impressed I bought one before I had even passed my test. Compared to the other training bike (a super 4) it was so simple to ride, you just thought about it and the bike did everything you asked. The bike coped fine, however I could tell when I was needing more fuel by the numbness in my backside after 200 miles (one tank full).

Honda's entry into the 4x4 utility class is their King Quad - the Foreman. Largest (and most expensive) in their line, it has a 400cc engine mounted transversely in the frame. Until this year's introduction of Honda's Recon, this configuration was unique to the Foreman.
To that list you can add the Honda CB-1. Unlike the Americans, we Brits can't yet buy Honda's latest reinvention of the 400cc straight four. But with the EEC's beaurocratic rodents gnawing their way ever-closer to their 1992 vision of a 4(K)cc/47bhp limit for newly-qualified riders, bikes like the CB-1 are about to become very small news in Europe too.
Nobody is yet admitting publicly whether the new limit will be 400cc or 47bhp, though it's likely to cover both capacity and power. We're not sure, either, whether the restriction will apply for two years or one; whether or not a further test will then be needed before moving to a bigger bike; or when all this will happen.
What we do know is that the limit's coming - and soon -and that it is likely to bring an upsurge of interest in the 400cc class. The new legislation is frightening, and motorcycling is likely to lose far more than it gains. But look on the bright side: if the worst of the new law is that some people have to ride bikes like the CB-1 for a bit, then perhaps life won't be all that terrible, after all. But I still wish they'd get off our case
Hi , I thing that both of this two bikes are to small for you. Seat of the xr is more comfy but this is a bike for one person. Drz seat is much harder than XR. For You two the better bike will be something like old yamaha tenere or honda africa twin or maybe newer bmw f800gs. If you wont more extreme riding you should concider honda xr 600 or xr 650 , but you must prepare those bikes for two person, and they be less comfortable than tenere and AT.
The refined, 400cc, liquid-cooled, four-stroke, DOHC, single cylinder, fuel-injected engine delivers balanced performance with strong low- to mid-range torque that provides powerful acceleration up to its peak horsepower in the upper RPM.
What you're looking at here is a 400cc, liquid-cooled, parallel-twin motor based on the 470cc engine of the CBR500R/CB500F/CB500X. The motor is being developed for the JDM and Southeast Asian markets where 400cc is an important tier within graduated licensing. The 400cc motor shares the 470's 67mm bore, but drops stroke from 66.8 to 56.6mm.
