Honda launched the CBR400R, code NC17, as a naked bike in December 1983, and in the two following years it also came semi-faired and fully faired, as the F3 Endurance. Its 4-valve-per-cylinder, liquid-cooled, four-stroke DOHC inline-four engine had a rotational-speed valve stop mechanism called REV, a prototype of Honda's VTEC system. In 1985 Honda brought a CBR400F to the US for testing, on which Cycle World recorded a quarter mile time of 13.63 seconds at 95.94 mph. In 1986 the CBR400R was also known as the Aero or Jellymould. Each model year has its own page.
