maybe moving from 125cc 2 stroke to a 400cc four stroke, thoughts?

hey guys,

so i did my CBT around 2 months ago and ive been riding my cagiva mito evolution 125, ive been rising solo and with friends, and every time i go out on it i find myself wanting more power, dual carriageways is where i get frustrated and tbh, i dont like the feeling of pinning a 2 stroke at 10-11000RPM for around 15-20mins.

on the twisty s and around town its awesome.

so there is one bike i would ride if i get a 400 and its a Honda RVF400R, so what do you guys think?
from a single cylinder 2 stroke 125 to a V4 4stroke 400?

Yeh £311 fully comp with 1 years NCB that's for a 1994 RVF400R.

Is there any 600cc V4 sports bikes? I've been told honda are the bikes with the strongest engines, is this true?

just looked at 600cc sports bikes, the only one i like is the ZX6R B1H, now i did a couple of quotes with my current insurer and got £251.99 tpf&t and £540.24 fully comp, thats with 1 years NCB

I can't stay with the mito for much longer, it's gonna blow up at some point, just trying to keep up with my friends I'm having to full throttle it

As the zx6r b1h has a meaty midrange compared to the other 600's would it take a restriction better?

A friend of mine has a 2001 yamaha r6 restricted fine and that still goes like stink!

Oh and I was 21 yesterday so I have to wait 2 years restricted or wait for 3 years for full power

What dose the restriction consist of? If i was to go to a track day, can I easily remove it?

I already have a lot of tools, so working on anything won't be a problem

I've seen the RVF400 are quite expensive, but i belive I would get that money back or even more when or if I sell it on.

I've just seen the full tyga race exhausts and the HRC ignition box and intake box, I can see this being tinkerd with, time to play!

Right so I'm looking for a RVF400 but if i got a zx6r b1h, can the police pull you over to check if the bike is restricted? I do t fancy have a zx6r then having it chocked up so much that I will look a tit lol

Ah ok that's a no go then lol, seen a few Cbr400rr nc29's would love to have a screaming inline-4!

They also seem a lot cheaper then the vfr and rvf as well, btw I was looking at what aftermarket parts you can get for them, but struggling to find a full racing exhaust system and CDI unit to remove the rev limiter
