CM 400 is not a bad choice :-)

I had a '87 CB450S when I was studying that I rode for about 40,000 km's until that fateful day when a car and myself were crossing the same exchange at the same time, coming from different sides.

After that, I got a used '80 CB 400 S (the predecessor), and that was also a nice bike. Both were easy to ride, reasonably fast and had good fuel economy (around 70 mpg when ridden reasonably).

Nowadays I am riding a 200 CC KTM duke 200 (was the most affordable "big bike" where I live now) and am surprised how much fun a 27 hp bike can be, if it only weighs 135 kg. Would LOVE to have that with an electric engine. Maybe a few years more, and they will hopefully build one.

Best regards,
Andy
