Honda CB400T HAWK 1980 (A) USA information
With a genuine 40BHP, with it’s 3 valve head, the CB400 was actually faster than the popular CB400F four when launched in 1978, but could not match that models exotic good looks, and fine handling characteristics.
But still a well made and reliable bike, the styling was typical Honda for that period and none the worse for it, the Comstar wheels being advanced at that time. Such was the reliability and solid performance of these models they found favour with despatch riders, where dependability, light weight and mid range punch were desirable trait’s found in abundance on these now rather underrated Honda’s
There was also for the first time in the motorcycling world a proper automatic model, though with 10bbhp less, and not a commercial success for the company.
