Honda knows how to build a motorcycle. They have been doing it for decades, and the CBR line is the stuff of legend at this point. Always renowned for excellent road manors and approachable performance, the CBR line has offered plenty of choices for buyers over the years. What Honda does not always know how…
In the spate of GP racer replicas that littered the 1980s, perhaps none are as perplexing as the Honda NS400R.
