HONDA/CBR400R (841,500 yen/photo is Matt Jeans Blue Metallic)
Last year, a model that obtained a normal motorcycle license (MT) and a talent Yui (Yui Arata).If she has a license, she is just an ID card.That's a waste, so she prepared a muddy course to find her favorite one while having Yui touch various motorcycles.The first memorable time is the Honda latest road sports "CBR400R"!

HONDA/CBR400R (841,500 yen/photo is Matt Jeans Blue Metallic)
The "CBR400R" is a full cowl model as the name of the CBR, and the displacement is 400cc as the model number of 400.And because R is one, it is one of the tourers rather than racing.It was born in 2013.It is a popular model of 400cc full cowl sports that have been fully modified in 2016 and has continued minor changes since then.
Around the front of Honda/CBR400R.The point is that it has been changed to dual disc brake and inverted fork
The part improved by this model change is mainly around the feet.Until now, we have adopted a straightforward folk, but changed to SHOWA's high-performance inverted fork "SFF-BP" (separate function front fork, big piston).The front brake is a double disk from a single disk, and a radial mount caliper is also used.In addition, each part has been reviewed, such as rigidity optimization of swing arm and weight reduction of front wheels.By the way, the body weight of 192kg is the same as before the minor change.
400cc water -cooled 4 stroke DOHC4 Valve parallel 2 -cylinder engine
The powertrain is the same as before the model change, and the engine is a 400cc water -cooled 4 -stroke DOHC4 valve parallel two -cylinder type.The maximum output is 46 horsepower (9000 revolutions), maximum torque 3.9kgf / m (7500rpm).Gasoline is regular, and the fuel consumption rate is 27.9km/L (class 3-2) in WMTC mode values.The transmission is equipped with a 6 -speed return type.

Where is the difference between CBR250RR and CBR400R?
Honda/CBR250RR (left) and CBR400R
I interviewed the midwinter morning.And the worst condition of rain."Is it really useless if you don't really run?"Let's take a test drive!I would like to say that, but since it is a motorcycle after a long absence, I practice first.I prepared the uninjected CBR250RR.
"What is the difference in these two?"Although the color is different, it looks like CBR250RR and CBR400R.And the price is close.The displacement is only 150cc, and the maximum output is 5 horsepower, and the torque must be 1.4kgf / m.On the other hand, the difference is the weight of the car, and the CBR250RR is nearly 30kg lighter.In other words, it is good to handle.
And the most different is the tax system.Since the CBR250RR is a light motorcycle, the automobile tax is 3600 yen per year.On the other hand, the CBR400R is a division of a small car, so it costs 6000 yen a year.
The CBR250RR is 8650 yen per year, and the CBR400R is 8290 yen per year, which is a little higher for light motorcycles.Voluntary insurance does not seem to change whether it is 250cc or 400cc, but the biggest difference is the vehicle inspection.There is no vehicle inspection in the CBR250RR, but the CBR400R must have a vehicle inspection once every two years.The cost of vehicle inspection varies depending on the location, but it costs about 50,000 to 90,000 yen, including the statutory cost.This amount is a liter bike, 400cc, and even a mini car.By the way, even at 400cc, the cost of vehicle inspection does not seem to change much.Let's return to the test drive.

Let's have it straddle first.Both are standing to the forefront, but the CBR250RR seems to be lower to the toes.On top of that, "CBR250RR seems to be easier to ride because the width of the body is narrower. The CBR400R seems to be a little far away, but it seems that it is on top and it does not seem to be too leaning forward."That's right.Even if you look at the photos, you can see this difference well.

Next, I decided to push both the body.Mr. Yu -san makes a little sound, saying, "CBR250RR is lighter. CBR400R looks like a training motorcycle."By the way, she said, "But I don't have the confidence to wake up if I defeat both ..."fine.Even if you defeat it, a nearby man will help you!Just pay the repair fee yourself.
