The '''[[Honda]] RVF 400R (NC35)''' was a Liquid cooled four stroke 90 degree V-four cylinder, DOHC, 4 valves per cylinder Sport Bike [[motorcycle]] produced by [[Honda]] in 1994. Max [[torque]] was 27.29 ft/lbs (37.0 Nm) @ 10000 RPM. Claimed [[horsepower]] was 59.94 HP (44.7 KW) @ 12500 RPM.

==Overview==
The '''Honda RVF400 ( NC35 )''' is a [[motorcycle]] introduced by [[Honda|Honda Motor Company]] in 1994. It finished production in 1998. The RVF400 is the smaller sibling of [[Honda RVF750|RVF750 ( RC45 )]], as the [[Honda VFR400|VFR400]] was to the [[Honda_VFR750R|VFR750R ( RC30 )]]
The Honda RVF400 is the successor to the [[Honda VFR400]]. The obvious differences between the [[Honda VFR400|VFR400]] and the RVF400 are that the front forks are of the upside down type, the rear wheel takes a 17" tire, a [[ram air]] system of dubious value and styling changes. However, there are many more subtle differences like geometry, engine internals, carburetors, etc. Unlike the [[Honda VFR400|VFR400]] the RVF400 was only officially sold new in Japan. The RVF400 outputs slightly less peak power than the VFR400, but with a stronger midrange. The RVF400 is known for its supreme handling capabilities. There is a [[Haynes Manuals|Haynes Manual]] for the RVF400.
Like other Hondas with gear driven cam shafts, the RVF engine makes a loud 'whine' sound when operating. The exhaust note of [[V4_(engine)|V4 engine]] is also different to that of a more conventional inline four.
The RVF400 has a reputation for excellent reliability and good build quality.
