    I have owned a z400 for three years and I love it and have no intentions to get rid of it. I have had a full A license for over 25 years, but I have no need for any more power then this. It is so much fun.

      I've got a 2023 Z400 too, the white and red version, and it's enough to get where you need to go but not enough to get you in trouble. I love mine, couldn't ask for a better first bike.

      Riding for over 30 years, owned everything from 125 cc to 1000 cc, recently bought a z400 and loving it, its all thats needed on UK roafs, now kore than ever when comparing our roads now to when i first started riding in late 1980's.

    I have the ninja 400, I think this is the perfect power for the streets. Incredibly engaging with its light weight, and ability to actually run through the gears to red line should you feel in a playful mood. As a reference I use to own a zx14r and the ninja 400 at the same time. The ninja 400 definitely got more use. But then we are all different in what we find fun. Zx14r was a lot of fun on the motorway, but for everything else I generally went for the n400.

    Bought a new one of these a couple of months ago... absolutely hoot to ride.. plenty of power to have fun with and so light and nimble and agile around the twisties... had a few bikes over the years but this is just so much fun... the only problem is trying to restrain yourself from going fast everywhere!

    I did enjoy your review greatly. Additionally it made up my mind and I snapped up one of the last new ones (same colour) for exactly £4.5k otr. I liked the fact you are used to larger but had fun with this. That's all I want. Cheap fun without losing my license. Can't wait now for delivery.

    I've got the white and red version of this bike and I couldn't ask for a better first bike. I put on a Leo Vince GP Corsa Evo exhaust and I swear I could feel a little power increase, maybe just from getting rid of that massive sewing machine sounding stock exhaust but still I swear it gave it a little more giddyup.

    Not a real 0-60 because the speedo is off 10%, ....37 tooth rear sprocket gets you pretty close to true MPH. My wife only weighs 120 lbs. so it still scoots her along really well.

    Yes. US version is more powerful. 49 hp. I believe British version is detuned to around 45 for A2 regulations.

      This was just before the Z500 came out, I got my Z400 in March and they got a Z500 in the shop like a month or so later. But honestly the difference between a 400 and 500 isn't that awful much especially on the same platform. But yeah the 500 would be noticeably quicker but not blowing your visor off so
