Honda is reportedly hinting, through two of its models, at a revival of the once-hugely-popular 4-cylinder 400cc class. Compact bikes delivering an exhilarating high-revving feel, 4-cylinder 400s are a category fans around the world have long hoped would return.
A four-cylinder 400 is the original experience of an engine that feels great when you rev it out. That sensation of wringing every last drop out of a small displacement at high RPM teaches you the fundamentals of riding. If Honda's bringing it back for real, I want young riders especially to ride one. That sensation running through your fingertips can't be fully put into words.

Is a 400cc inline-four really that rare a configuration? Sounds impressive just going by displacement.
Feels like Honda's genuinely jumping on the trend Kawasaki's ZX-4R first lit up.
With the ZX-4R's proven sales track record, Honda probably had no choice but to respond.
A high-revving 400 four with that sensual engine feel — if it comes back, I'm preordering the instant it drops.
"On two models" — frustrating that it doesn't name which ones specifically.
It's only a hint, not an official announcement yet, so getting too excited could set you up for disappointment.
There's also a chance it ends up as a Japan-only release, so calling it "world-anticipated" might be a stretch.
Hearing about a 400cc four-cylinder revival nearly brings tears for those of us from the CB400SF/FX generation.
