Honda published an interview with lead engineer Takuro Nakamura about the development of the new CB400 Super Four E-Clutch. The model is roughly 14kg lighter than its predecessor and uses an electronically controlled E-Clutch paired with ride-by-wire throttle to manage clutch engagement. It will launch in China, Southeast Asia and Europe, having first been unveiled at the Chongqing Motorcycle Show in September 2025.

I felt a chill looking at the spec sheet. About 14kg lighter than the outgoing model, and the E-Clutch links to ride-by-wire to electronically manage the half-clutch engagement. They call it 'a new standard for inline-fours' — man, my pulse is racing. Compared to the old model's weight, this evolution is just too good.

If you want electronics on a 400, isn't the Ninja 400 just better priced?

E-Clutch tied to ride-by-wire, still not clear what's actually different mechanically.

14kg lighter AND E-Clutch kills the half-clutch grind? Insane, want one.

Cool it's 14kg lighter but it's China-first, when's Japan even getting it.

So does E-Clutch mean you basically never touch the clutch lever?
