That looks like the kidney grille from a reasonably modern BM car :D Either is costs 5 times more than any other part, or more likely its from a scrapper.

Suits the K bike and is colour matched to the bike's mudguard :)

Imagine getting hit by that as a pedestrian. You'd be shredded.

They should have used the Falco as a base. The frame and swingarm would suit it far better.

How to sell a bike in India.

1. Stick a picture of it doing a wheelie on a beach.
2. Do a video of an under dog street fighter winning and riding off on one.
3. Rupee to GBP... it's just over £2k.

I approve of it. It seems underpowered for me/UK but a cool thing.

The CB400 Superfour is a truly superb motorcycle, I'd happily have another one if Honda sold them in the UK.

That's some nice dedication to the art of 4T exhaust tuning. Made by someone who's actually good at forming pipes too by the looks of it.
