Café JapanIn the early '70s, riders hungry for sport bike performance, handling and styling in a single package found famine in most motorcycle showrooms. Japanese four-stroke fours, two-stroke twins and triples made strong engine performance easy to come by, but many of us were looking for more than muscle car-humiliating acceleration. If Ducati hadn't brought its undiluted and dreamily tempting 750 Sport to America, enthusiasts looking for machines delivering high-performance handling would have felt forgotten.For many, the way to satisfy sport bike appetites was customizing affordable, standard Japanese motorcycles. Most had more than adequate power, and with some skill and dedication, their styling and handling could be elevated to surprising levels of sport bike likeness. Low bars replaced taller touring types, road race-styled tanks took the place of common, conservative teardrop shapes, lighter and louder four-into-one exhausts were mounted in favor of stock four-into-four systems, and rear set controls completed the riders' desire for sporting riding positions. The café racer was reborn.When Honda unveiled the café racer-inspired CB400F Super Sport in 1975, sport bike fans were either hypnotized or cheering in the streets. Nobody expected a Japanese manufacturer to hit the mark so squarely. The 400 had it all. Its tiny inline four had the mystique of Honda's exotic road racing multis. A 10,000 rpm redline and six-speed transmission, rare at the time, underscored the fact that the Super Sport's statement was sincere. The styling was stare-fixing perfection. The low bars, the tank's purposeful lines and minimalist graphics, the seat's riveted-on cover and gently upswept tail, and the knockout punch, the gracefully unique four-into-one exhaust, were almost too perfectly executed to be true.
