Opinions - 400f or 550f

<< < (2/3) > >>

Trigger:
Depends what you class as expensive  ;)

rman:
I've got long legs, so looks like the 550 then! ;) but thanks for the replies, has sort of confirmed my thoughts about the two, especially the two stroke comparison with gear changes etc.

As a flat and V twin addict, a bit of torque goes a long way to a relaxing and enjoyable ride, but the 400f Parakeet yellow is so pretty!!

Expensive?? anything over £500 is expensive to this pensioner :'(

Nurse Julie:
If it's a CB550 four K3 you are looking at, they have PD carbs fitted and the carbs block for fun if the bike is not ridden regularly. F's don't have PD carbs fitted.

Davelu88:
Like Julie said the 400 is a very racey engine and likes to be revved high to get the best out of the engine & it certainly needs lots of gear changes up hills & Bends  etc. Its not a bike for a Sunny Afternoon stroll , cant comment on the 550 but i have one coming soon. ;D

Best of both worlds.
The larger has the ability to "potter"
And if you want fun.ride it like a 2 stroke.
They do go well
