Thoughts on CB400sf

[nzspokes]

Thanks for the input. I am tempted to have a go on a hornet to see what they're like. I think your right about the 250s. Had a go on a hyosung and it seemed to have enough power. I do a lot of driving on the motorway so a little extra power would be nice tho

Hyo will have 25ish hp where the Hornet has 40. They go well.

Ive ridden a few.

Anyone have any opinion on how reliable they are? Youd think that little engine spinning at 16k wouldnt last very long but I havnt been able to find any complaints

So don't rev it that high then! Red line isn't a target you know. Which bike you talking about anyway? The CB400, the Hornet or the Hyo?

The Hornet redlines at 16k.

Pretty sure they run forever, there'll be a few threads on here about them. Same engine as the CBR250RR and that revs to 19k, they're all over 20 years old now and there are plenty of high mileage examples of them around.
