Due to the license laws and regulations in Asia 400 is the max engine size .the honda xbr engine was designed as a 400 .just made larger for the us and European markets. If the demands for these bikes grow they will increase the engine size.have been told a café racer style bike is in the pipeline no pictures yet.

If they prove to be reliable and spares are plentiful and a half decent build quality they,ll sell well otherwise they,ll be fodder in a few years time , buy second hand for half the price I reckon , as for me I reckon I,d rather use the money I,d have spent on one on a SD rebuild but I think they look quite good

It's a far nicer looking bike than anything in the current Honda range. Honda Motorcycles have gone to the dogs in terms of their appearance.

What is the reasoning behind why the Asian authorities limit bike engine size to 400cc? Hardly safety, surely a 400cc in line 4 would be a lot faster and riskier than a 750cc single cylinder thumper? I can think of a logical reason, except maybe they want to spoil the fun !
