Balancing Power and Elegance: HONDA CB400SF Custom

 7 min read

Webike's Opinion

Here is a "HONDA CB400SF" custom by Webike community user "TYPE R". The YAMAMOTO SPEC-A Slip-on Silencer produces a pleasant low-frequency sound that is highly appealing. After installation, it becomes easier to recognize the power band, and the response to opening and closing of the throttle, as well as the ease of control, enhance the riding experience. Power is increased across the entire RPM range without compromising low RPM torque. Additionally, the exhaust's quality is superb, making it an ideal choice. MAGICAL RACING's Under Cowl was installed to beef up the bottom of this CB400SF. The under cowl is a component designed to capture oil, preventing it from splashing onto the road surface in case of engine failure during a race, and it also has a significant dress-up effect. This one from MAGICAL RACING has a cowl that extends to the rear wheel area, making it look cool even from the rear. The bike looks completely different before and after installation. Furthermore, it is designed with an emphasis on aerodynamic characteristics to avoid causing any resistance while riding. Installation is not difficult and does not interfere with the stock engine guard. After installation, the overall balance of the bike is improved. The MAGICAL RACING XMF Front Fender is not only visually appealing but also contributes to weight reduction with its lightweight design. The carbon fenders around the suspension give the bike a sleeker and more racer-like appearance. It can be easily bolted onto a naked bike without requiring any special modifications. These fenders are designed to wrap around the sides of the forks, not only to shield the outer tubes from rocks and debris but also to prevent foreign objects from getting caught in the tires while riding. Old bikes tend to wobble when you reach a certain speed. To improve stability, the NHK Steering Damper Kit was installed. It is recommended for riders who are concerned about handlebar wobble when riding at high speeds on naked bikes. After the installation, the wobble was reduced, allowing for comfortable and safe cruising. Even during cornering, the posture remains stable, making it easier to handle corners. The installation can be done without removing the tank, and it takes about 90 minutes, including adjustments. It is a great relief to be liberated from the handlebar shimmy that has plagued riders for a long time, with just one additional part. And the handlebar won't become as heavy as you might think. Elevate your riding experience with customizations that are sure to make a big difference.
