Driving down a dual carrigeway the other night and I saw a couple of bikers , when they saw me the speed up , so I took chase , got to a set of lights and pulled up next to them , lights go to green and the Ducati ***** off , Honda not far behind , I'm thinking I'm having a bit of this , so I thought I'd se how long I could keep up with them



Going through the gears I was holding the CBR , I was fairly happy with this , then at about 135mph I shot past him , I eased off then and started slowing down for the next set of lights , lights went green and the same thing again



I phoned my mate after who knows his bikes pretty well and told him all about it , he came to the concusion that it must have been a 400 , I had seen CBR on the fairing but that was all , he was telling me that they top out at 130ish but are still pretty quick , he was as impressed as me

i didn't know they made a 400cc CBR... i thought 600 was the smallest they made. Either way... good fun.

its only in the states that 400 are rare, there is no cbr 400 in the states, but in the rest of the world there is.

done a bit of looking around and it looks like it was a 400 , pictures I found looked very similar and apparently they do to out around the 130 mark , wouldn't mind finding out what the 0-60 and 0-100 times are
