Best bike ever made - fact! Had mine for nearly two years now and struggling to let go for an upgrade. It does everything you could ever need except pull your arms off. Great city bike (I live in Tokyo), but does a splendid job of touring the mountains and gunning through the twisties. Just lacks that punch from around 70-80 kph (which is the speed limit here anyway). Still the best bike ever made ;-)

Ive had my 2023 ninja 400 krt abs for 3 months and 2500 miles. It has been incredible to learn on and see how fast my skills have progressed. I couldnt imagine a better beginner sport bike.

Yep! I've been riding for over 45 years and I have owned about 30 motorcycles, including a Ninja 250 and two Ninja 300s. I just picked up a Z400 to do a few rookie track days, it joins a KTM890 Adventure and a KLX300 in the garage. The Z400 and it's nearly identical twin the Ninja 400 are the perfect motorcycles. The jump from 300 to 400cc and the refinements to the chassis really make this bike. The 300s were always just a tad lacking in power and felt a little skittish especially in an area where people are doing 75 mph on secondary roads. The 400 finally has the Goldilocks displacement, a beginner can learn on it and not have to trade up for any reason short of touring capability and an experienced rider can go out and have a blast and not feel "exposed" when playing with the SUV's on the highway. And I paid $5,500 out the door for the Z400, really, the 3 bikes in my garage cost less than a GS1250 and I get to select my weapon of the day! I love these bikes and I think they hit such a sweet spot of price, performance, usability and fun factor that everyone should own one.

Am looking to buy the 400 . Where did you buy your bike? I'm willing to travel for the right price.

Been riding my Ninja 400 2022 for more than a year now. All I can say is that it's very very easy to modify to your comfort, taste, etc. Don't like the long throttle throw? Swap it out with an R6 throttle tube(barely need to modify any thing in the throttle assembly). Not too sporty? Give it a rear set or a footpeg riser. Go lower your handle bars while you're at it. Need a phone charger for a long ride, you can add that as well, there's even a slot of the usb socket ready for you. Not saying you can't do those things with other bikes but for the n400 it's simply way cheaper and the way the bike is built, it readily accepts a lot of modifications to make the bike look and run the way you want it to. And you get the big 4 Japanese brand reliability. Also not saying it's the perfect beginner bike but it's definitely one of the best you can get as a beginner.

It's the perfect beginner bike and quite frankly one of the most enjoyable overall.

Worth, I got one about 3 or 4 months ago, and I love it. Very smooth, clutch is SUPER soft which felt weird at first, but it's pretty nice once you're used to it. Slipper is MINT.

I bought a 2019 Ninja 400 new for my first bike, rode it for 2 years and then had to sell it due to a spinal surgery, didn't think I'd ride again. Fast forward 12 months and im kicking arse with my recovery, I will ride again! 😊 I was looking at the 2023 CBR500R but I'm a Kawi fan boy deep down and I've decided on another 400. I could buy a bigger bike but I'd prefer to ride a bike that I can use all the gears on without losing my licence. The 400 is everything I want. + the KRT colours for this year look sick.

I have a 2018 ninja 400 in candy plasma blue. These bikes have more potential than you know. I get mistaken for a 600 cc all the time. I have full exhaust, velocity stacks, MWR air filter and full tune not to mention a ton of visual upgrades. I’m able to keep up with some of the Harley baggers and surprise them to. No issues keeping up with 600’s either. They have excellent reliability, easy to Work in, great gas mileage and insurance is super cheap. So this is a keeper for me.

I've been commuting on one of these for the past couple years, and I can regularly do 100mph on the tollway every day with no issues. Plenty of passing power.

Picked up a 23 ninja 400 6 months ago, cant see any reason to ride anything else. It is basically perfect.

My first bike was a new 2013 Ninja 300 SE. Loved it. To this day it's the most fun I've had on two wheels. I was shocked at how much better it rode after I put a set of Diablo Rosso II's on it. Night and day difference. Tires have always been my first upgrade on every new bike I've gotten since.

I just love watching these videos thinking about my future motorcycle when I’m only 13😅 already really in love with motorcycles but I just can’t wait till I can get one love the videos keep it up

Yammie... When's the video coming out to compare the "STOCK" Ninja 400 vs the ZX-4RR FULL POWER (hopefully without exhaust) on track? Can't wait to see 🙏

Perfect timing man. I am getting one of these as my fist bike. They are preparing my plates and papers but next week I am gonna grab it! :D :D cant wait mannn

We have this in the family and 1st service just done.. I love it. And my 19yr rides it very fast in twisties 👍

Fantastic video. Have a MT09 currently. Thinking of switching to a Ninja 400. I'd rather be thrashing the Ninja 400 to the speed limits rather than quarter throttling my MT09 everywhere lol. Rode the Ninja 400 and had so much fun!

Absolutely love the commentary,been riding off road for over 35yrs. Now lm looking at road bike, definitely looking into this bike after what you say. Very very informative and funny. Thank you

I had this bike for 1 year and I learned a lot while I was on it. My only issue was with side winds on the high way can blow you around quite a bit at high speeds. Shakes a bit at 70+MPH. That said I entered to win it too, it is a great bike

I own a 2021 Ninja 400. It’s a fantastic bike, but definitely leaves me longing for a zx6r, not gonna lie. I definitely rode it to its potential in the 2+ years Ive had it, and I still love it (I may even keep it when I get a bigger bike!) and I’m really happy that I chose it as my first bike. But you will definitely want some more at some point! At the end of the day it’s a fantastic machine though, if you’re not looking to get your face melted off or just want a really really nice beginner bike, look no further than the Ninja 400.

nooo I showed up too late 🤕

I got mine 6 weeks ago, love it. Traded in my Z650 as it was getting a little bit heavy for me.

I bought this bike a few months ago for a beginner bike it’s really fun for a beginner I would recommend

I just finished the basic motorcycle course today! I used a Yamaha TW 200. I'm hoping to buy my first motorcycle soon. The closest dealership to me has a couple new R3's in stock. I only weigh about 120 lb so I think that should be fast enough for me for a first bike. I'm proud of myself for not even hoping that I will ever have a passenger lol I thought if I got in shape, then women might notice me and I would get tinder matches. Nope. I'm just hoping that a motorcycle helps me feel alive again. I really liked the purple R3 that I checked out last week. I'm not even a big fan of purple in general, but it looks really good. One of my teachers at the motorcycle class had a Suzuki GSX-R 1000 motorcycle. It was cool to see one in person. I saw another GSXR-1000 near the dispensary after the class too. I don't know them enough by sight to say what size it was.

9:50 That's how I know Yammie's still in Racer/Track mode lol. I don't think a beginner rider should start with the Q5S when the Q5S usually needs tire warmers while even the Q5 doesn't. Even though I started on a CBR 300R, I always recommend this bike as the perfect starter!

If the pick up on the grom was good for me.. the ninja 400 will definitely be perfect. I am going to the dealership here probably this week to look! I am excited to become a comfortable and good rider. And be part of the incredible culture

The ninja 400 is such a superior and versatile motorcycle that comes at such a great value/price. I don't know of much bikes that can give you the value, performance, and ergonomics as the ninja 400. I bought mine last year brand new for less than $6K after taxes and registration. The thing about this motorcycle is it can be used in so many different ways. It can be a starter bike or a performance racer. It can be a commuter to work or fun yet exciting work horse. I've mainly used mine for commuting and it hasn't failed or given me any issues yet.

Besides the rpm, are there any differences between ninja 250 and 400 ? Thinking about the upgrade but my 250 has 8,000 km now. I've done 4000 myself so it's basically new but 22 years old.

I don't ride yet, but I think that riding medium sized bikes to it's limits is more fun and actually possible most of the time, while riding a big liter bike to it's limits will get you in trouble or killed (on public roads)

I rode my GZ250 with a friend with a Ninja 400. It made me realize just how slow my motorcycle is. I feel like I'm hitting the limits of my bike, both in a straight line (the 0-60 time is 15s lol) and scraping the foot peg in a corner. Meanwhile, he goes way ahead of me in a twisty road.
