Hey,
I have found a bike for sale, however none of the insurance companies i have looked at have it down as a model that was produced that i can find. It is advertised as a "Honda Cb-1 400" 1991. But none of the insurance companies seem to know of its existance. Anybody know of a different name it might use?? Bros 400?? CBR 400??
Cheers,
Mike

It's a Honda CB-1. The '400' isn't part of the name.

As above just Honda CB-1.

It wasn't officially sold in the uk so its an import as far as i know, it was also known as the CB400f.

Looks like it's not on the standard list that most insurers use. The model number is NC27 - I'm seeing NC25 and NC29 but not NC27.

You might give eBikeInsurance a try - they seem to have a wider range of bikes on their list.

I managed to find it eventually, apparently if you put in 1990 instead of 1991 it finds it Confused Doesnt matter anyway, the insurance seems to be very high on it in comparison with similar bikes. So thats a no from me Razz

There was a CB1 400 called the 'Big One' or 'Project Big One', it was the baby brother of the 1000cc bike of the same name. I parked next to one of these on Thursday.

There is a forum at hondacb1.org - why not ask there, they are sure to know.
