FZR400 - One of the more powerful 400, and gotta love that FZR look.

Got to be the CBR, by far the best looking and least dated bike, the most reliable and of course - I have one Mr. Green

Gotta be the VFR for me, 4-pot calipers, beam frame, sharp looks, £6300 new and there was a reason for that (get what you pay for)! Thumbs Up

What happened to the rvf as i remember you not passing you're test & you had the bike Smile Cbr is nice tho, Whats the diffrence like in power?

I'd say rvf/vfr for best 400 reading from other forums & from myself, I like the zxr400s looks as it looks more modern.

Laughing You rem that, 7th time lucky aye Razz For all that dont know, had my test cancelled 5 times due to snow/wind.

They are completely different. Power from the 600 and being modern, FI etc. Really does shift, loved the RVF and would have another one for the correct money. Onwards and upwards Smile Thumbs Up

I think it was fairly obvious from the start it was going to end up being a zxr/cbr battle, Laughing Dan

NC35 is sublime to ride - felt like almost perfect handling, much more agile than my R6 which has awesome handling itself.

Also CBR is nice but I would say money aside the RVF takes the crown with ease as an overall bike to own.

nc30, the reason I got one is beause they are the best, such better handelling and torqe in lower rpm in early gears than the zxr
