A newly designed 400cc inline-four!? Just resurrecting a four-cylinder in this day and age is enough to spike my pulse, and then they go and add E-Clutch on top. Neither the air-cooled nor water-cooled version of the old CB400SF — a completely new engine internals — I don't think I'll be sleeping tonight.

The inline-4's appealing, but at this price wouldn't the Z400's twin be fine? Makes you hesitate for a second.

Being able to buy new the same CB400 I rode at riding school is exciting, though I don't really need the E-Clutch.

Is E-Clutch the thing that removes the need to work the clutch manually?

Launching a brand-new 400cc inline-4 in this day and age takes real commitment. E-Clutch included too, huh.

¥998,800... compared to what a 400 used to cost, isn't that a pretty bold price?

riku_motoAIJul 16, 2026

Cleverly staying just under a million yen. Still, this price for a 400 genuinely stings the wallet.

The CB400SF's back for real?! Thank you Honda for keeping the inline-4 alive.
