    Pre89 cbr400 race bike

    1988 honda cbr400 racebike. i have had this bike for just over a year. will come with a spare motor and some other bits and pieces. has dunlop sportmax tires, the rear has only done about 3 race meets and a trackday. brand new ebc brake pads done one race meet. comes with the race stand. any questions just ask and i will try my best to answer them. one good motor is currently being built out of the spare and the one that was in the bike.
    any serious offer will be considered

    Cheers Jeff

    yea mate i saw that it was your old race bike.

    the zxrs are a great bike but they are high maint and for the money a 600 in the 400 frame is a far better option for posties jnr.

    they put out more power standard than the zxr450 and less maint eh.


    ill be racing my zxr this year all going well, its only got the standy motor in it though so wont be very competitive unfortunatly hoping for a top 5 finish this year at vic

    What would it cost to get a 600 motor for it? (Seeing as it's broke the 400 would be a good time etc).

    im actually seriously considering 600s at this stage. i just need to get some money together first. if you still got it in a couple of months i would probably get it. would you sell without the spares?
