Your inability to read and comprehend a simple post.

[hambone]

I don't comprehend why its cool, I wish i was in the know.

Oh it's cool. The rear wheel proves it.

[OreoGaborio]

V4, cam driven gears, single sided swingarm, highmount exhaust, aluminum perimeter frame, etc etc etc.... all in 1998..... and that's just from lookin at the picture.

very cool and very rare bike.

It's beautiful. I've said it since the FZR400...THERE IS A MARKET FOR 400's IN THE U.S.! And the funniest part about it is that the market would be the experienced riders.

[slaps76]

Legit deal, no scam?? That's a sweet bike.

so true!! would love a 400!!

[Evil_Weasel]

alot of the jap factories made awesome 400s for the home market. you just never get to see them in the U.S. it's a shame too cause i would love one of those Honda RC30s or a Kawi ZX-4R.

[RGVER]

My friend had one of these, model designation NC24, when I had my 85 GSXR400 (GK71b).
Beets right with the year 87-89 and they sound great and handle even better.

[Hamburgler]

i love those bikes. thats why i keep my vf500 interceptor in the garage, i can pretend its almost as cool as one of those.

[Stoneman]

Can ya'll remember when VFR's were THEE racebikes? Kinda weird how they transformed 'em into what they are today...

[Sbk12rs]

I just bought an 06 VFR ! Took it for a short illegal ride just before this damn snow storm , I think I'm going to like it a lot !
Seems just as solid as the BMW . My Girls ZZR 600 is no where near as nice as it !
I can't wait for more seat time on it to get a better feel for it .

The stock Dunlops (204's) ? are very shitty . Not sure if I should just run them out or take the hit and put the Pilot Powers on now ........

[slaps76]

Pilot Powers made a huge difference...take the hit.

[LuvDog]

Yea... I wish they would have brought more cool 400's here. A CBR400 would have been fun to ride.

I'd like to see the new Mito 500 make it here too... but for a more reasonable price than is being projected.

[SVRACER01]

they make an SV400 too. i want one to race in P twins

[GMAN226]

I think all the big guys made 400's most were I4's except the Honda...

G-man

[Hamburgler]

Honda made a cbr400 too, looked kinda like a mini 900rr...
