HONDA CB400F (2013-2014) Specs, Performance & Photos

The Honda CB400F was a standard or naked motorcycle launched in 2013 along with the CB400X and CBR400R models, all powered by a 399cc engine. The models were sold only in Japan, and their introduction coincided with the new European licensing regulations that established a mid-range class of motorcycles with limited power.

In 2014, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the CB400F, a motorcycle in its second production year that has been sold between 2013 and 2016. The first version of the CB400F was sold from 1975 to 1977, the second version from 1989 to 1990, and the third version from 2013 to 2016.

The 2014 CB400F came with standard features, such as a small nose-fairing with a small windscreen, small side fairings, a two-piece two-up seat with passenger grab handles, black-finished cast aluminum wheels, an analog and digital instrument cluster, and a chromed exhaust system.

For suspension, the bike packed a 41 mm telescopic fork on the front and a Pro-Link single shock absorber with nine-way spring preload adjustability on the rear, while the braking performance was handled by a 320 mm disc with a two-piston caliper on the front wheel and a 240 mm disc with a single-piston caliper on the rear wheel.

In the power department, the 2014 Honda CB400F had its soul brought to life by a 399cc four-stroke parallel-twin liquid-cooled engine that delivered an output power of 47 hp with maximum strength at 8,500 rpm.
