Core was reduction in costs at the same time in the metallic painting though the logo of the sticker looked very fresh a simple solid color at that time at the time of general the emblem of the metal. The purpose of the set muffler is lightening and reduction in costs, and it did not understand well for the pulsation effect by the set at that time. It is said that the purpose of Ekipai that draws a peculiar line is to avoid interference with the oil filter.
It was pointed out by the police at that time that it was a sentence that the impressive advertisement of the catalog '400. You were a wind' associates the reckless driving act by the hot-rodder after it put it on the market, and was changed part to the copy of the content that gave back the ownership feeling '400. You like it'.
However, dream CB400FOUR with the displacement of 408cc from needing the limited release examination is not ridable in a limited license so that being possible to drive by revising the driving license system done in 1975 in the automatic operation two-wheel license that can be acquired in a training school etc. at that time may be limited to 400cc or less, and rise to the model of a displacement any more.
* If it knew the back circumstances of the Road Traffic Law though it got on for a fact by a medium license ..off-the-beaten-path.., total displacement 408cc model of the old model in general was not punished though said that it was not possible to get on by the medium. Because it was '0.40 liters both' in the automobile inspection certificate, it was models of medium division. saying and ..displacement division of the Road Traffic Law.. standard the car verification descriptionIt was hardly, and only the medium drank ..no possession.. fairly and selected 398cc model reluctantly by the rider the rider who knew this circumstances most at that time.
Three whose additional model only for domestic-oriented to which it is made to short stroke corresponding to this, and displacement was put on the market as 398cc on March 6, 1976 is CB400FOUR-I, and the improvement steering wheel model CB400FOUR-II. As the main change point
* The color of the right and left side cover was done and the blackout was done
(CB400FOUR is the same color as the fuel tank).

As for the export specification of the model, the line entered the tank, and the backing step through the link that was the feature of CB400FOUR was abolished in 1977.
However, because two series cylinder model is a main current in this class at that time, and four series cylinder model becomes total cost, total cost cannot be spurned because the model only for the country where the difference and the color variation of the spec that becomes two kinds of engines and two kinds of frames are different was added though it was developed by dream CB350FOUR base thoroughly attempting reduction in costs, and a domestic specification will become a production end in a short term comparatively. Afterwards, the export specification after a while became a production end, too.
At that time, the production stoppage became the lead story of a motorcycle magazine at that time because there was full popularity as the only four series cylinder car that was able to get on by a limited license. And, it came to transfer subsequent while being regretted to Horcshirez of two series cylinders that brought production costs down, and the premium car for the used car sales price to exceed the price at the new car this time became hips afterwards.

I love those tiny Honda fours! They sound great. I used to see them here in the U.S. but not anymore. What was that rotary switch on the ZX 14 for?
