2007 model Honda CB400 SUPER FOUR HYPER VTEC Revo

A new electronically controlled fuel injection system (PGM-FI) has been adopted. Revised engine materials and an integrated crank-case cover reduced the engine weight by 2 kg (4.4 lb). Not only does it improve environmental performance, but it also delivers excellent throttle response and light acceleration while supplying the optimum fuel for a variety of driving conditions, realizing a smoother ride and improving startability.

The "HYPER VTEC" mechanism has evolved further and is newly installed as "HYPER VTEC Revo". The VTEC operation was further refined such that in gears 1–5 four-valve operation engaged at 6,300 rpm for wide open throttle, otherwise at 6,750 rpm, and remaining at 6,750 rpm in 6th gear. Independent cylinder ignition timing map, revised air intake geometry and a larger stainless steel muffler contribute to fuel efficiency. Updated frame rigidity and engine mounting position improved handling.

In addition to adopting a new electronically controlled fuel injection system (PGM-FI), the front and rear wheel interlocking braking system CBS (combined braking system) is equipped with ABS (anti-lock braking system) to avoid wheel lock during sudden braking. Combined ABS was installed for the first time as a 400cc class naked road sports car, and a new type was set. Optional combined ABS uses three-piston sliding calipers on the front brakes instead of the standard four-piston opposed calipers and a larger 256 mm rear brake disc. Weight increased by 4 kg (8.8 lb), and 9 kg (20 lb) with ABS.

This time, the newly designed engines of the CB400 SUPER FOUR and CB400 SUPER BOL D'OR newly adopt an electronically controlled fuel injection system (PGM-FI). Not only does it improve environmental performance, but it also delivers excellent throttle response and nimble acceleration while supplying optimal fuel for a variety of driving conditions.
In addition, the conventional HYPER VTEC mechanism has evolved further and is newly installed as "HYPER VTEC Revo". In addition to the gear position and engine speed, a new system that detects and calculates the throttle opening allows more precise control of the number of valves that operate. As a result, when the throttle opening is small, such as when cruising, the fuel-efficient 2-valve system is maintained, and when the throttle opening is large, such as during acceleration, the engine switches to 4-valve, resulting in an exhilarating and sustaining drive. .
In addition, the exterior design of the engine has been completely redesigned to create a form that is simple and full of functional beauty befitting a water-cooled engine, while the exhaust pipe and muffler are made of stainless steel to enhance the texture.
In terms of safety technology, Combined ABS is used in combination with the front/rear wheel interlocking braking system CBS (Combined Braking System) and ABS (Anti-Lock Braking System) to avoid wheel lock during sudden braking. It is the first 400cc class naked road sports bike by Honda equipped with ABS and has a new type setting.

CB400 SUPER FOUR was equipped with a water-cooled, 4-stroke, in-line 4-cylinder, 400cc engine and was launched in April 1992. In 1999, HYPER VTEC, an innovative technology that achieves high dynamic performance while being environmentally friendly, was adopted. Since then, it has evolved and matured twice. In 2005, CB400 SUPER BOL D'OR equipped with half cowl was added. The CB400 SUPER FOUR is widely used as a driver's license training vehicle in driving schools nationwide, and has gained wide support from beginners to veteran users, including women, for its straightforward output characteristics and ease of handling.The number of registrations in the 400cc class It is a model that has gained deep-rooted popularity, such as recording the 1st place *2 in a row.

Newly designed engine that achieves high environmental performance and agile driving performance

By newly adopting the electronically controlled fuel injection system (PGM-FI), the engine achieves a high level of environmental performance and a light driving feeling. By supplying the air-fuel mixture with the optimum fuel injection amount and injection timing, it provides excellent startability, agile throttle response, and smooth and supple driving. In addition, through a synergistic effect with the catalytic devices (catalyzers) placed in two places where the exhaust pipes meet, it complies with the 2007 domestic motorcycle exhaust gas regulations.
Furthermore, the newly designed engine emphasizes the functional beauty of a water-cooled, in-line 4-cylinder, while reducing the weight by approximately 2kg. Along with this, the design of the right crankcase cover has also been changed. By reviewing the number of component parts, weight is reduced.

Further evolved HYPER VTEC

In the conventional valve control system HYPER VTEC SPEC III, the engine speed is 6,300 rpm between 1st and 5th gear, and 6,750 rpm in 6th gear. By detecting and calculating the gear position and engine speed, The number of operating valves was switched from 2 valves to 4 valves. "HYPER VTEC Revo" adds a function to detect the throttle opening to this mechanism, and more precisely controls the switching timing of the valve. As a result, when the throttle opening is low, such as when cruising, it is possible to operate two valves with good fuel efficiency up to 6,750 rpm even if the engine speed exceeds 6,300 rpm between 1st and 5th gears. . Also, when the throttle opening is large, such as during acceleration, it switches to 4-valve instantly, demonstrating light acceleration and extended output characteristics. In 6th gear, regardless of the throttle opening, it switches to 4 valves when rpm exceeds 6,750 rpm as before.

Combined ABS for greater peace of mind

In terms of safety technology, an advanced braking system, Combined ABS, is newly installed that achieves a high level of braking performance until the vehicle stops. CBS is a front/rear wheel interlocking brake system that effectively distributes braking force to the front and rear wheels by operating the rear brake pedal. be. In addition, the system is combined with ABS, which prevents the wheels from locking during sudden braking, etc., further enhancing the stability of vehicle behavior during braking. This time, we will add a new type of Combined ABS equipped model.

Other Features

  • The details of the frame and swingarm have been reviewed to achieve the optimum rigidity balance.
  • In the exhaust system, the capacity of the silencer has been increased to further improve quietness.
  • In the two-tone color model, the graphic design of the stripes on the fuel tank has been changed, and the left and right side covers have the same coloring as the body color. It has an elegant design with a sense of unity.
