Motorcycle Tyres for Honda CM400T Motorcycle
Honda are an unparalleled manufacturing success story, producing safe and reliable cars and bikes since the 1940s. Born from the need for affordable transport after WWII, Honda’s first motorcycle was literally that - a two-stroke motor grafted onto an ordinary bicycle frame.
Honda’s first real motorbike, the Dream or Model D, rolled off the production lines in 1949. From there, the company never stopped growing, developing 125cc and 250cc bikes that would dominate the demanding Isle of Man TT events and winning the Daytona 200 at their first attempt. Honda have never stopped innovating and producing user-friendly bikes from the Super Cub to the Gold Wing.
Small, light and with classic retro styling, the Honda CM 400 T was aimed squarely at beginners, albeit newbies who could handle the not insignificant power at their disposal. Harking back to the so-called cafe racers of the 1960s. The Honda CM 400 T was the precursor to the legendary Honda Rebel bikes of the 70s and 80s.
Featuring a manageable but pokey 395 cc engine and an electronic starter, these nifty bikes were designed to be child’s play. Honda included some subtle nods to the US style cruiser bikes with the raised passenger seat, increased fork angles and of course plenty of luscious chrome.
Originally available in candy apple red and green with red and orange pinstripes, the Honda CM 400 T oozes old school style. It wasn’t without its innovations, however, with electronic ignition and the disk brakes that Honda had first introduced in the late 1960s. The front and back tyres weighed in at 3.50-18 and 4.60-16 respectively, mounted on sleek black five spoke rims.
Incredibly fuel efficient, the Honda CM 400 T featured a dual exhaust for better flow of engine emissions and a relatively small 10 litre fuel tank. With a kerbside weight of just 185kg the Honda CM 400 T can be a complete joy to ride.
