Honda is number one on my list

"Just spotted a Honda VFR400 nc30
i love the look of it, the single sided swing arm, the curved spokes on the wheels, the headlights, the lot"

if you dont fit into this catergory you are obviously dead

[Toast]

yep, they are a great looking bike, they go very well for a 400
probably the fastest factory 400 available
go for it!

I've heard that the ZXR400's are a superior track bike, so fastest 400 may be pushing it.

Apparently the VFR400 is a far better road bike though, so a better choice for most.

[kiwifruit]

yeah, im no expert on the subject... i still like the vfr much more
there was one at the track day on the 31st that was flying!
sounded really cool too

I agree with mynameis. NC30 is a super bike but i forked out a bit more and got a NC35. Totally have not looked back. And yes the one on trademe for $6K was overpriced i thought.

I did plenty of searching the web on 400's when I got my full and pretty much everything I read praised the NC30 and the NC35. Yes apparently the rectifiers have issues but havent experienced it myself. In my humble opinion a 400 is a great step up from your 250 as they still have plenty of grunt to keep you interested but not that bad for insurance etc.

The sound of the V4 together with the Cams is mint and the single swingarm is superstuff. You wont regret it son.

I know if you have a problem with the rectifier, you can just move it. I thin sAsLEX has done something like that.

next time you wanna get talked down about a bike, choose something that isn't good..

[Insanity_rules]

nah, it's still a couple more months till i can get my full, i just think i'm hooked on the vfr as the step up, as i should be able to get one for under $4000 and from what you've all said they are a very good bike, about the battery box, is it possible to just drill a hole in the bottom of it so that the water drains out?

Drill a hole, glue a hose to it and run it out the bottom. Keeps it tidy and stops water in bits where you don't want water. The only bike I ever wrote off was one of those, hit diesel on a corner.

haha yeah thanks everyone, so thats now at the top of the list of bikes i'll more than likely buy when i get my full (soon) the zx6r is just too expensive

[inlinefour]

Recifier? Pfft, an aftermarket part spliced into the wiring fits in nicely and never do you have that problem again. I had the problem once on a 92 CB400f2 where the bike cooked the battery dry because of it. Plenty of advice, but I reckon you should get what you want eh.

[Squeak the Rat]

Far out man, don't like worry about it being a Honda dude. The common theme over the years from people dissing the big H is that they are so good that they don't have any character (ie bits don't fall off).

I can't talk about this bike in particular, but have had nothing but good experiences personally and good reports from mates with Hondas.

Having said that, Go Kawasaki!

[Biff]

Mmmmmmmmmm. Pocket rockets.
