As a sucker for dual headlights, the 400rr always gives me a bit of a tickle when I see one for sale. Check out this highly attainable example, with title, for sale in San Jose:
RARE * 1991 Honda CBR 400 (NC29) CA. Street-Titled on Bay Area Riders Forum
This is a clear street-titled grey-market CBR400. The Odometer reads less than 16,000 kilometers (that comes out to be less than 10,000 miles!) This CBR400RR is not a museum piece or a beauty queen. The bodywork does show signs of cracking and repair. All locks use the same single key. (I have two spare keys for the bike).
No doubt this one is a bit rough, but can you think of a cooler beginner bike? Or first entry into track days or amateur racing? Or replace all the plastics with OEM, which couldn’t be more than a couple thousand, and ride this low mileage bike for the rest of the season and flip it next spring. This a buy!

Is the bike for sale still? If so, how hard is it to title and insure?
I am interested the bike if you still have it, please e-mail me back at spjboxer@hotmail.com. Thanks,

Steve,
I just listed classifieds I’ve found from the web, I’m not the seller of the bike. The link for the bike above leads to the Bay Area Riders Forum where the bike was listed for sale. However the posting indicates the bike has been sold.
I’ll be listing more bikes I find for sale soon, and will keep an eye out for 400RR’s in particular.
Thanks,
dc
I am still looking for a CBR 400RR….If you see any, please let me know. I am noticing they are hard to find in the states.
Thanks, Steve
I saw one over the weekend on the Bay Area Craigslist but it was gone before I could even blog it. I’ll keep my eyes open Steve!

[…] I’d have to say the graphics on this one wouldn’t be my first choice, but it’s titled and de-restricted already. Is this the Baby-Blade you’ve been looking for Steve? […]
Still for sale? Contact either way please.
Please read all comments – THIS BIKE HAS SOLD ACCORDING TO THE LINK

I’m still looking….they seem to go pretty fast! Any graphics will do, I’m looking to repaint one when I purchase.

[…] Going back in time, here’s the first machine listed on this site, a tasty Honda CBR400RR for a mere $3300: […]
WTH?? Original post was 5/23/2008, last post was “sold” 6/9/2008. Did someone just Google this ad and decide to link it on RSBFS?
