RSBFS
We have seen a few of these on the site. Donn found one in 2020, “Honda’s diminutive V4-400 has almost a cult following here, and it was never actually offered for sale anywhere but Japan…As the last in a long line of small V4’s, and had the commensurate goodies on board – in addition to 59 ponies, the gear-driven cams brought music to every twist of the throttle. The alloy chassis had upside-down forks up front and 17-inch wheels at both ends. Nissin brakes are right-sized at 269mm, with black calipers matching the black painted alloy wheels. Graphics took their cues from the RC45, though the more modern fox eye headlamps were particular to the RVF.
As a baby superbike, the RVF400R had a lot of differences with its big brother RC45, but shared the family build quality. Pretty racy for the segment, the high MSRP warded off the bean counters and the really junior riders for which it was theoretically intended.”
Good luck to the buyer and seller!
