Honda New 400cc lineup 2013, CB400F, CB400X, CBR400R

[robbedzombie]

Hi All. i have ridden my CBR400R since Jan. Not a bad bike. comfy and FC is good. Anyone else has a CBR400R? Lets make a group!

 

I think even if you combine CBR400r and CB400F otr, there will be more CB400X haha...just camp here better

[zachawesome]

Haha.. true2. Bt cbr400r saves money. So little accessories. Unlike the cb400x. Change windshield lah,main stand lah box lah.

 

 

Btw, any of u cbr400r put box?

[xue ling]

For accessories, can check out http://japan.webike.net/HONDA/CBR400R/6455/mtop/

Some stuffs are cheaper than the price in sg but some more expensive.

Overall, pretty good range of accessories. Most importantly, shipping is fast.

[poorboii]

which after market exhaust is better? in terms of perf.

[Baal]

Just to enquire on 400F & R owners, what is the worst FC u all are getting? 24km per Litre? Thanks.

[zachawesome]

mine is 22.7km/l/ but i am 136kg. for me thats good enough

[Baal]

No worries. Thanks. 22.7 compared to the Revo's FC is still good. Did u do any modding?

[unsettle]

Hi. Need some advice. I made downpayment for 400x on 24th May and today already the 5thJune. Tomorrow will be exactly 2weeks. I wont name the shop. The shop told me they have ready stock and will take only about 3-4days but its nearly 2wks. I already made downpayment. Hmm

[TianLei]

CBR400R FC advertise put 39km/L or 91MPG.

Not sure it true.

Can some 400R rider enlighten me.

Hope the 300R come sg in 2015

[zachawesome]

Tian lei, I read somewhere the 39km/l is for a 55kg average weight japanese commuter riding at 60km/h on a sparsely dense road. Ie nt much stopping. Baal, only mod I made are putting on stickers.hahaha. unsettle, 7 common. I faced that too. U can change bike if u want ,they will use the deposit.

. Ur right. Its going at a constant 60kmh in top gear. Didn't know bout the 55kg, Thanks. Typically, what ever they post for FC based on Japan combine cycle, for my case, due to enthusiastic riding & with pillion, I get 2/3 of the "claimed" fuel economy.

 

I believe (not tested), should I ride in a more "regular" manner, I should be able to get 3/4 of the "claimed" fuel economy.

[Baal]

Hope the 300R come sg in 2015

 

 

I hope so too. But seems that for Honda, especially for the 2A class, its mostly JDM models.

Eg, Europe gets the CBR500R, we get the CBR400R like Jpn.

So theres a good chance we would get the updated CBR250 instead. It now has exhaust like the those 400 series , 2.3kg of torque , but is surprisingly rated now at 29ps. Looks like a vast improvement over the last model at barely 23ps.

 

Its only for >400cc that Sin gets access to both Jpn & Euro market Honda Models.

sorry. still lost with the cbr 300r. so lil info on net. (esp comparison w cbr 400r)

 

1)is cbr 300r same size as cbr 400r? (mech at msia said malaysia cbr500r same size as cbr 400r. thus all parts EXCEPT engine are same)

2)i heard cbr 300r's engine is single , unlike the parallel twin of cbr 400r. so technically it loses the mileage but gains acceleration??

- Don't think so as the 300's dimensions & kerbweight is identical to the 250's. So pretty sure is smaller than the 400.

 

- Yes, also read articles that between CBR400 & 500, only diff is the engine displacement. Same applies to the X & F.

 

- Yes 300 is a single. Basing it on Honda Jpn site, the 250 is supposedly

 

- 0-60kmh, the 300 single & 400 twin is likely similar (with the 400 a little quicker). But from 61-100 & beyond, the 400 should win hands down. The difference should be more apparent in favour of the 400 should there be a pillion.

Thanks!. #notregretingcbr400r

Did u get that sorted? I'm interested in the cbr400 as well. What the diff between the 400r and 400rr?

[fusion2]

cool review, thanks

[zachawesome]

if not wrong, the cbr400rr is an OLD honda racing bike? RVF era.

[IIcecube]

Hmm so this new cbr400r got 2nd handed land in shops?

[TianLei]

The 300 & 250 different in the stroke length, increased 8mm from 55mm to the new length of 63mm giving the CBR 300 286cc.

Below some compare

Seat Weight CC FC KM/L / mpg

CBR250R 779 161 249 32.73 / 77

CBR300R 779 165 286 30.19 / 71

CBR400R 785 192 399 39 / 91

 

300 got narrower seat + got accessory to lower the seat by 2.5cm. Easier to reach the ground.

If pass 2A in oct, will buy cbr400r

[TianLei]

Nice?

Hi Guys,

 

I just got my CB400X yesterday and checking where you got your accessories for your bike?

 

Looking at Engine Guard and Mud Guard - Where and can share the pricing as well if possible.

 

Looking at Box and Rack - Where and can share the pricing as well if possible.

 

Thanks!!!

Hi Guys,

 

I recce at Bike Production. Selling at 16k (w/o insurance and road tax). Just wanna check with you all, any better price at other shops? Anyway to get the shop to lump together an exhaust system to the 400X in the price? New to bikes, cuz been driving all along and which is the recommended insurance company(with competitive pricing) to go for?

[dreamer_toons]

Considering to get a new 400x.

 

Beside Boon Siew, anywhere can I get this bike with agent warranty, not parallel import?

16k OTR (w/o insurance and road tax) sounds about there taking into account today's ridiculous coe prices.
