Hi All,

I have upgraded to a Honda Bros 650 and was woundering if there are any improvement that can be done to get the max out of the bike?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Cheers Peter

For Honda Bros isn't there a problem with the rear suspension being too weak?
At least for the 400cc model. I like the look of those bikes, it was quite futuristic for that time

Welcome to K.B., P.B:spudwave:
My last bike was an NTV650, which is virtually the Bros and two bikes before that I had an XZ550. Do you have stator problems with the XZ400?

I have heard they have problems with regulator which is quite common..mine still going but have air getting in around the carbs so it is popping along at the moment
