This race replica 400cc with it's light-weight (159kg dry weight), powerful engine (4 cylinder in-line [[DOHC]] 16 valve) red-lining at 13,500rpm and back shock that feels like it's filled with cement is ideal for the track and many were often raced. The bike is at its best in the corners and twisty roads due to its size, and can out-perform most 750cc and even 1000cc motorcycles, holding a much tighter turning circle. However, come to the straights and this lead is often not held. This is a fantastic little sports bike aptly given the title 'pocket-rocket'. | This race replica 400cc with it's light-weight (159kg dry weight), powerful engine (4 cylinder in-line [[DOHC]] 16 valve) red-lining at 13,500rpm and back shock that feels like it's filled with cement is ideal for the track and many were often raced.
