unusually, the UK press have seen fit to mention that the xs400 twin exists AND, were not scathing of it AND, said its faster than an RD400 :thumbsup:
 
If i could get my hands on an RD400 in decent shape and good price even though its a 2 stroke I would rather have it over the xs400 unless I could get a maxium
 
If anything it would be one of the salties or 1000fts that hits the bluewater bridge LOL.There was one about 13 years ago hit underneith the bridge on the wall taking out 200 yards of seawall.$800 on that bike doesnt seem to bad.The Xsspecial has to go 1st though.My mrs wouldnt be very happy if i bought another bike right now.Im already in the doghouse:(
 
They also mentioned the XS250 in a less scathing manner than last time they mentioned it in the 'sportsbike A-Z'... They said to get the best from it you need to mercilessly thrash it, 'making it rather like an RD250 with cams and valves'. I completely agree...
