Man this was my dream bike. Small, high revving and 4 cylinders.
Me too! I ended up with a Bandit 400.
looking at these as my first bike lol
@@admiralrng6506 I had this bike in yellow, great bike and plenty fast too
@@freeair7292 oh shit in yellow, I love how they look in yellow 👀
@@admiralrng6506 me too 🥲
The way Mr. Regular has talked about New Zealand in a few of the episodes, I feel like he really wants to live there. And I can't blame him one bit.
Who can, it's a really nice place, visually, but also the people.
@@aserta I know it's been a year but the people aren't that nice and NZ has plenty of problems.
@@TheRazePlayz I know it's been a year, but it's all about context. It's a socialist Paradise compared to here.
I was in a back highway in the Philippines once, and I heard a really deep but high revving rumble creeping up for behind us while at a stop light. I’ve only ever seen SuperFours in pictures before but I immediately assumed correctly that I was about to see a SuperFour.
There i was witnessing the absolutely douchy yet excusable loud exhaust of this wonderful 400cc bike carrying a 160-200 kilo man, who was physically bigger than the bike, all the way to 120Kmh before we could even make it up 50 in our family MPV
Ｄｏｕｂｌｅ ｖｉｄｅｏ ｗｅｅｋ
we got 400 fours here. honda cb-1, yamaha fzr400, and suzuki bandit 400. cb-1 had gear driven cams and a 13750 redline. the super four you rode here was the replacement for the cb-1. we never got that one as the cb-1 never sold well and only lasted two years, 89-90. the super four was styled after the cb1000 where the cb-1 had its own style.
Thanks for pointing this out. As a former Bandit 400 owner, I'm constantly reminding people that there was a brief shinning moment when the US was able to get adorable and practical sporty bikes that weren't designed as falic representations.
I'm glad the intro is fixed now and all, but why you gotta do Roman's outro song like that?
you guys had the cb1, one of my favorite bikes ever made. 4 inline cam gear shaft, same engine as a 1989 honda cbr 400rr but retuned for the streets. only released in japan and the usa
Just realized a small error, Honda made the CB400F NC27 in 1989 with a four cylinder, not 1991. There was an entire model generation or two before this bike. In fact, it was even brought to the us in 1989/1990 as the Honda CB-1.
NC42e is for after 2008 i think, fuel injection model
Yep, I've seen a few CB400Fs on Craigslist, but they're rare.
You’re right. I have an NC31 from 1992. It pretty much looks the same and revs the same too. Great bike!
The end of this video was amazing. Really gets me thinking about how much bigger the world is than we see it from our own home. Pennsylvania is a blessing and a curse man. I'd love to see whats really out there, beyond the city.
get out and see the world brother. I have been out of the US for 7 years. I really don't miss it.
Beyond the Pittsburgh or beyond the Philly?
But Romans outro has been cut off...
Come on RCR, getting sloppy now.
Not only Roman's outro, but also the right camera pan that was so inherently important to the ending paragraph. We miss the pier, the orange buoys and the beauty of the South Pacific Ocean with humans bathing in it
This is journalistic excellence ! Man, I can listen to this guy all day ! Our laws are similar................from British Commonwealth.....we drive on the left also. We do not have them, but I love all the Honda Super Fours and Hornet models. Cheers. Trinidad & Tobago.
Ended up buying one of these only a few weeks ago as my first bike on recommendation from a workmate who rides. 2012 model, 15,000km, tricolour in red/white with gold wheels. It’s a beauty! I love it! It is an absolute beauty to ride and I think it will never leave my garage.
A lot of places are still "grey" as it pertains to lane splitting.
I've even seen municipal and regional government websites say, "Don't do it... but it's not illegal (yet).
BUREAUCRAT VOICE IS ALWAYS WELCOME!
The end to this video felt like a cry for help. Do you require assistance?
ALAPINO it's simple use the left shoulder if your going to your TOUCH TOUCH CAVE!.........or you can split lanes if it's code BROWN!!!!
Code Brown makes all things possible.
World War Brown :D
ive gotten a splitting ticket. counted as illegal overtake
Probably the best RCR review.
1: how did you guys skip the most important part of the previous video? Your sponsor?
LOST IN THE B R O W N
Legit thought he was done with New Zealand because you missed the sponsor spot
too much SHEMALE PORN ADDICTION
Love your "not a car" reviews, need more.
I want to live in NZ since I was 12, Im from Argentina and was looking at this bike to buy there, and I found a video of you THERE, I subbed like 4 years ago and I just stumbled on this video and made me realize I need to do it now.
Ayyy how fucking cool is this? I have a CB400, in NZ, love RegularCars, and Automation is my favorite game. lmao what a gem this is
I love your narration. Been giggling throughout
The VTEC systen used on this bike is basically what they used on the VTEC Honda Fit/Jazz that you had. Both engines go from 2 valve to 4 valve per cylinder when VEC is activated. There is even a Motorcycle/Scooter that uses an engine based on exactly the same engine as the Fit/Jazz but with 2 less cylinders, the Honda NC700D Integra which is a cool maxi scooter with a dual clutch transmission and half a Fit engine that was made to run not completely smooth to give it more feel.
I wanted a Honda CB-1 400cc when I was in high school. The CB-1 was available in the U.S. from 1989-1990 it was a liquid cooled transverse 4 cylinder. So we did get a 400cc Honda.
Just bought a 1990 M.Y. last week
W S Jealous, that CB-1 should be a fun little bike to scoot around on...
@@mws3779
I thought the exact same thing until I got one. It's a fast, fun little bike but the gearing is insanely low (3000 RPM at 30 mph), and the seating position is pretty uncomfortable for trips longer than 20 minutes. If you want a similar bike, I imagine any old 600cc sport bike would be better.
Great, now I want this. Again.
Thanks for this! It’s a beautiful bike!
Mr. Regular is really making me want to go to New Zealand
I want to say your video sold me on motorcycling and i bought my first bike today.
Great video🤘 love the end 😎
Fixed the intro, but now cut the ending too short. :)
But I hears...
Fixed the head, but now cut the tail too short. :)
i love the look of this bike looks waaaay better than the modern CB. also i've been watching the prices to get one of these cbs, and they pretty sure they have gone up in value.
3: yay, another rcr video (but I already seen this one) [that's ok, I watched a few vids of their multiple times]
The reading of the law was so good, crack up dude
Start of the review: "Man, I'd love to have a bike like that."
End of the review: "Man, I'd love to have a head space like that."
We need an RCR poetry book. The end to this video was supreme.
The 2014 variant of this is really nice. I had one for half and some change of a year.
Actually, America did get a 400cc inline 4, I owned one until last year when I sold it to a new rider. You can see it on my channel if you're interested- it was a Bandit 400, only imported a couple of years because they didn't sell well. I just acquired a Honda 919, because I like naked styling...but as pretty as my 919 is the Bandit 400 with it's trellis frame was still yet prettier and preceded the Ducati Monster by 2 years.
You cut off the end of the song at the end with the re-upload. You killed Roman's song :(
mistaecco Version 3 on the way lol
I love your motorcycle reviews if you did only motorcycles from now on I wouldn't be sad at all
I think this later became the Honda hornet which I owned in Auckland as a learner. Its was a great bike,250cc but also a 4 banger. It had a 180 rear which was good too!
Sure was missing out on hearing that ad last time!
Hey, at least RCR has recognized the fact that I watch *not car* reviews multiple times, and facilitated that by simply reuploading this one
Excellent review... Want one...
I watch this video whenever I miss my cb400sf like "oh s*** here we go again."
does anyone know where i could track down a cb 400 sf or a cb400rr in the us? ive tried finding one online and im down to scouring import websites
Anyone know what the import laws are in north America for motorcycles? Similar to cars I'm assuming, 25 year law?
legend has the road is in fact still going on.
*REGULAR NOT A CAR REVIEWS*
Recently acquired one of the more recent versions of this beauty. Even if it's ostensibly a "small" bike it feels reassuringly weighty and stable. Like the portly, bearded mechanic in this 50s, who looks at a seemingly impossible repair job then claps you on the shoulder and says "I'll have it sorted out in a week."
can you make more review about this bike... I REALLY LOVE THIS BIKE... Hoping to find more Super Four reviews on your channel
Holy shit! Finally words to describe what it's like to ride in Tasmania! I must get to NZ with a bike some day.
I’m taking a trip to New Zealand next month I’m so excited
Still waiting on that documentary style video about the speed wars
Which Honda CB400 upload is best upload?
You had one job Mr. Regular!
I had no idea you still were making videos. They haven't come up in my feed in months. Looks I have some catching up to do.
Yes I enjoyed my visit New Zealand too. I didn't get to ride a bike though, NZ is one of the best places on the planet for that, I'm told.
Sometimes when Mr. Regular screws up and has to re-up; I re-watch because he deserves it. :P
.. I really wanna get into riding, really wouldn't mind something just like this.
I have a 2001 cb400 great learner bike, this is Maraetai beach it’s down the road from me!
Great advertising for New Zealand. Come on down when you are able to come America. We've got no Covid (by the grace of God). Summer days full of content... Super surf and a cold beer awaits you.
This bike was my first... The kind of bike you'll be faithful for the rest of your life.
oh god it sounds awesome.
The last part him me hard. I love America, don't get me wrong, but wow, the rest of the world just seems more beautiful.
No, it’s shit everywhere else too 😀
@@David-cm4ok Damn lmao got my hopes up for no reason
@@danield8528 sorry about that 😆
Though, in 88 and 89 (I had an 89) in America Honda had the CB1 CB400F. Great little bike!
love the dialogue, but I bet some portions containing the soundtrack of the vehicles you review like in this video but a more lengthy clip. would win over more repeat/consistent viewers. also longer videos = more ad revenue right? You guys have done a phenominal job reviewing pretty much an all encompassing petrol head array of vehicles both 2 and 4 wheels
Yeah but... but... what about the 1989 - 1990 Honda CB-1 (400FT) and the Honda Hawk GT 650 of the same era with trick single side rear swing arm as standard?
They WERE brought to the states it's just that when Honda tries to sell you a CB-1 (even one that revs to 13K rpm and has gear driven cams) for $4K+ at the dealership and the Honda 600 'Hurricane' F1 was just under 6K most people just bought up.
This has always pretty much been a two bike country: one engine under 1 liter and one engine at or above. There never seemed to be a large enough demographic to fill out the sub-liter categories much more than the 600 or 750s, which is a shame because the CB-1 was an excellent bike, small, flickable, light and my first ever.
This version of the video ends prematurely. Needs to reupload it again?
Great, now Mr. Regular used up all of this guy’s blinker fluid!
Yes, we never got the CB400SF in merica', but we DID get the CB-1, which is basically the same thing. Of course we are going to have to wait 15 years for the first fuel injected VTEC yo CB400SF's to be importable, but for that time you can still enjoy the 1989-1990 CB-1s. Hey RCR, did you go see sparky while you were in New Zealand? :)
*WHAT A LOVELY DAY*
I was wondering if you were going to Motorcycle in New Zealand!
Also there's an anime called Bakuon about girls and motorcycles and the main character drives one of these!
is there a video on honda prelude?
I figured they only sponsored CAR REVIEWS.
You plug the corporate sponsor and kill the ending, nice.
what an amazing bike
When is the CD coming out?
Prices are high for learner bikes in NZ and Australia and the UK and generally anywhere that has hard and fast rules about what you can ride while you're learning, thus more buyers every year, same number of 'good' learner bikes = high price. Benefit is you won't lose a cent on the bike so you can easily trade up to something good later.
Thanks enjoyed that
What was fixed?
Can you review a 150cc underbone motorcycle??
If you can find one, review a Yamaha YX600 Radian. My dad had a couple of them. I remember those bikes having like a 10,000 or 11,000 rpm redline out of a 600cc 4 banger.
Mr Regular's moment of zen
It's a nice beginner bike, that's what it was for me. I quickly got tired of the need to rev it high. For me the game is played in the 2000-5000rpm range. Now I own a hornet 600, and again it's tiring to have to rev it, but much better than the SF.
These bikes are like rocking-horse here shit in the UK. Most of them are grey imports. Superb and high quality machines, perfect for our roads, and in great demand in the vintage collectors crowd.
I love this bike, I have a 1997 and its the dream
My weekly ride Maraetai Beach with my CB400SF 2009 , end of this road take right to Clevedon more twistiest
That was beautiful...
When are you going to do a boat review?
That ending man, yeah ...
The last part was very poetic.
The fact we didn't get this bike in the states is so disappointing. I would LOVE to own this bike in the states.
Can you guys review early Bimota bikes?
That is a beautiful place.
Roman has such a nice voice. :P
How did this slip past me? I've been subscribed since Season 1.
Bit late on this, but we did get this bike. Look up Honda CB-1
Even in the USA that bike would be sick for a really fun and sporty beginner bike, much like the Kawasaki EX500 or CBR500. Enough power to merge with freeway traffic, enough power to sustain 80+ mph no problem. But unlike those other boring beginner bikes this one revs to 12,000 rpm ;) Good for girls and smaller riders too.
Didn't usa get the superior Bandit 400?
Can u buy it in USA
US market had the Honda CB1 a 400 in the 1970s a honda cb 550f cb 400f -cb350f all 4 cylinders
I have a black, 1988 Honda Accord lxi coupe in the eastern PA area, would you want to see it or know anyone who is a real Honda hero?
Needs a bit of work, but it's a really cool driver, really sounds like a beefy lawn mower.
There's a video on how to submit a car to rcr in the video description, outlining the steps you need to take so it doesn't get lost in the shuffle
do you have it up on craigslist or something like it?
I don't mind watching again, but you cut out the end of Nick's song and the forever-long pan of NZ. If possible, keep those in the future.
What's fixed
Man, this video made me really want to get a motorcycle. And live in a real developed country.
