        I think it looks nice. Most of the manufacturers are making the smaller cc engines now. They are trying to appeal to the new riders in urban areas. Most people don't want a big bike to travel around town on either.

            Yes!

            I really like it because it looks so much like a '78 SR500 ...

              Very nice, now if they would just make an xs11. I was up at the Honda shop the other day checking out the cb11 and it didn't sound like they were selling very well.......at least in my area.

                This bike has been available in Japan for a very long time. Perhaps it has been going since 1979. It is not new, just new to the North American market. With the popularity of the old SR500 here, perhaps it was concluded that exporting the bike would be profitable.

                    I've been searching for a graduation present bike for myself and since seeing that CB1100 the other day I'm really considering abandoning my Yamaha Stryker plans for something a little more classic.

                    I would be a buyer for this SR400 but I can't get over the small displacement engine. Would make a nice cafe bike though...Maybe one day I'll buy one for my kid as a first bike he can drive to school.
