Is this available in North America? Is it stock?
Dislikes: Dont care to have the seat sliding me toward the tank. Turn signals too short/not visible. Engine waaay to small.
Likes: Overall look of bike, super cool. Slick tank paint scheme (just the wrong color for me). Analog gages (if it aint broke, dont fix it). Wicked, low center of gravity exhaust can. Powerful brakes. Updated/sweet tail light. Modern gas shocks. Steering stabilizer. Awesome motocross handlebar. General hip look of all bracketry. Chin spoiler.
Add 100 horsepower, paint it black, and show me where to sign!

ACEi, nice bike, just a shame it is not available here in the US.
This must be the smaller cousin for the CB600 Hornet and the CB919 and when they were available here in the US, they were not great sellers.
The person I purchased my N/H from purchased a brandnew CB919 and we are going riding together in the near future. I will give my opinion about the 919 then.

If your going to ride it make sure to clean that shiny stuff of the tire treads first.

It's the CB400 Super Four. It's been available in Japan since the early 90s, then later in Australia (and now apparently in Saigon). Four cylinder water cooled engine making around 53 horsepower. Personally, I'd go out and buy one tomorrow if they were available. Unfortunately, as cool as it seems, it would die a quick death in the North American market. First, it's only 400cc (never mind that it makes as much power as some liter sized v-twins). Second, it's neither a cruiser or a plastic coated sportbike. Sadly, Honda knows this all too well, so I seriously doubt I'll ever ride one.

They do make a 400 dressed in plastic -  I think Honda needs to have bikes like this in their US line-up.

Would, no doubt, be a blast to ride! Have fun  I don't particularly care for the headlight assembly either, but otherwise a very sharp bike!
