What kind of engine does a Honda XR400 have?
At its heart is a 397cc single overhead cam, four valve air-cooled four-stroke engine. It’s kick-start only, which reduces the weight of the engine, but on the odd occasions it won’t fire up, you’d probably trade all of that weight and more for an e-start.

Which is better Honda XR400 or Suzuki drz400?
It may be a bit slower to pick up than the new four-strokes, but once you make the adjustment, it’s fun from tick-over to top end.
What is the weight of a Honda XR?
While we are talking weight, the XR comes in at a respectable 120 kilos or 265 lbs. – fine for the age of the machine, but at least ten kilos over more modern machinery and that’s before you add fluids – reliability comes at a price! But that same reliability has amassed the XR fans all over the world and the Honda continues to gain converts.

Why did my Honda NX 400 Falcon engine stop working?
I ceased the engine in Paraguay (hadn’t checked the oil level and had been losing oil due to hot/dry weather). Luckely we were only 120 kms from Brasilian border and original parts arrived on next day delivery. 7 days and £600 later I had a new engine which never worked as well as the original. I would recomend that bike for sure.
