Wonder if they fixed the issue with the newer ones

After a while of owning a Ninja4 and hanging around forums i came to the conclusion that people will upgrade the 400 and sell it off for the upgrade, but then about 2 months later they really want to ride their ninja again. Something about just cruising around town and having that good balance of torque and speed & being able to legally bang through all the gears is part of the Ninja4 experience. You dont buy these bikes because you want to go fast and keep up with leaders, you buy it because its a fun little bike to ride around town. (That and allllll the mods you can get on them now. One of the best bikes for modding in recent history IMO)

I let him ride it and he was like, that’s a way different bike. Stock they are fun but get some good mods, and it’s a blast all day long. I drive 35 minutes to work and back on the freeway every day. Now he wants to get a 700. 🧐Sounds intelligent to me. Heh. Some kids never learn patience. 1000 miles and they think they can ride perfectly. Oh well.

Been a month, still happy with your purchase? Going to buy a 2020 soon as well

As a current 2018 N400 owner, I'll say that it has been a great bike if you want something that's cheap to operate but still want something fun to commute or tear up some back roads. The power may not give you that feeling that you're holding on for dear life but it's plenty enough for all riding conditions. Other issues that I've seen pretty common are the clutch wearing quickly or beginning to slip. Overall, I haven't had an issue with anything yet on mine. Definitely WANT another more powerful bike for some weekend rides but I don't NEED more power. I've also previous owned a CBR 1000RR so that may be where my need for more power stems from.

You missed the biggest flaw in the 2018-19 model. When they introduced the slipper assist clutch they used too light of springs which causes major slipping issues.

Beginner rider here, picked up my Ninja 400 about a month ago, and I love it. This a was a good history lesson on the Ninja line! Thank you!

I've experienced all the problems you mentioned on my 2014 300. The problem with the clutch being pressed and then the bike turning off can be fixed by tweaking the idle. You will idle a slightly higher rpm but at least it won't turn off in the middle of riding on the freeway lol

Thank you for making videos you inspired me to get my first bike

Thanks for sharing this valuable information. 👍🏼👍🏼

I’m actually thinking about this for my second bike. I’m currently on a 2016 Yamaha R3, and I love these small displacement sport bikes. The ergos are enough to feel like I’m in a cockpit, but I can still ride a bit more upright, I love being able to wring them out without breaking the law, and they’re so lightweight. Was considering turning the R3 into a strictly track bike, but this might be the better move 👀

I'm a crate builder so I test drive literally every new bike that's made minus Harley, Triumph, and Indian. That being said i'm a Yamaha enthusiast and a small CC entrepreneur since even on 300 CC bikes you can break every speed law in america quite easily. The 400 is nice, it's light agile and has more than enough pep for beginners but shifting is clunky and you have to be incredible used to it or accustomed to the way it shifts to ever find neutral without stopping. It feels generic between your legs and doesn't bolster confidence at speed the way the R3 or the CBR300R do either. I don't knock peoples interests especially when buying a vehicle where brand affiliation is a heavy influence but I can't say i'd recommend a Ninja 400 for "beginners." It's more for track day folk who want to be at the smaller CC class but want to dominate and be considered the fastest at the track with little to no investment in their bike rather than just flat out buying it. What do I know though i'm just some dude on the internet.

Also, if you stop and shift upwards from 1st, it literally cant go into 2nd. Im not biased at all because it’s def not a perfect street bike. Actually looking to get a naked but I think the shifting is really good for a beginner. The clutch is very light aswel.

I have a 2023 Ninja 400, its my first bike and the one thing my friend with a 2013 Ninja 300 commented on was how much better/smoother the shifting was on the 23 model. It's a fantastic machine that really feels fun because of how high you rev the engine. Awesome beginner bike. I was on the fence about starting with something bigger as I was worried I'd rapidly outgrow. But you wont outgrow this bike anytime soon. It's an absolute blast in the twisties and more than enough to land you a triple digit speeding ticket on the highway. I HIGHLY recommend buying a lightly used one though. Saves you thousands of dollars and gives you a nearly new bike.

I loved my 2006 ninja 250. I’m looking at the 400 now. Thanks!

I can guarantee with 100% certainty that 43 horsepower is enough horsepower for anyone. I rode an XS400 parallel twin Yamaha for my first bike, for 3 years. It had 28 horsepower, and actually was perfectly nice to drive. It was always really fun to drive in town and on the highway. It could go about 100mph. Parallel twin engines are so much more fun to rev than a single cylinder engine. There is no comparison. The twins actually have a top end rush, and get smoother as your rev them, because they are "self balancing" unlike single cylinder engines which require a large counterbalancer just to function. When one piston goes up, the other goes down. So as the revs increase, the engine smooths out. They still have vibes, but it's totally different than a terrible shaking single. Even when a single has a counterbalancer, it still sounds like it might blow up when you revv it up. Twins sound aggressive and good, and mean.

It may be enough for you but far from it for a lot of real bike riders and racers. The guys at my local track love the 400 ninja but none are happy with the 43hp they are all modded to hell and want even more as it is a nice chassis and suspension package but 43hp is just a starting point to get the most out of the little ninja.

I really love my ninja 250. Yes it screams and annoys the locals but it seems fast enough for me for now. Done 1500km in the 4 MO. Of riding season last fall. I can pass people no problem and great on gas though I need premium fuel. Maybe it lacks some torque going up big hills but I have done some doubling one day. The suspension isn't for two and I wouldn't recommend that.

My 2018 n400 averages 56mpg city or highway with taller sprockets installed. Still love riding it. After just two years, the engine needed torn down to replace a cheap rubber o-ring that is sandwiched between the crankcase and cylinder jug. Be sure to check that front crankcase seam, right behind the exhaust extractors for coolant traces.

I've seen a bunch of hit or miss suggested solutions on the internet and KZread, but the only one I've found that remedies this 100% of the time is to just slowly let the clutch lever out until 1st gear engages, then I'm off and running. Doesn't happen often... in a year of ownership it's maybe happened 5 times. Anyway, thought I'd share this.

And it’s perfect just for motorcycles😁

It's fun. I'm a new rider and the 400 is perfect for fun rides and commuting. I live in 🇲🇹 Europe so bigger cc engines cannot fulfil their potential, although I've spotted a beautiful zx-10 R recently and started dreaming about the zx-6R because I can dream.

What flag is that

Great video! Lost of good, technical information and relevant clips. And as always perfect energy in the video. But sorry, i like my quad lock. Espescially in combination with the usb charger...

@Ninja400 riders, would you recommend this bike? What would you have changed/ modded or would you just have avoided it? Looking for a first bike! Appreciate any responses!!

Smiles per gallon... Love it!

happy to say I just bought a 2023 ninja 400. I started out, yes started out with the FZR 600 in 1992. Less then a year after I bought it, it was stolen, and I haven't ridden since. So, I thought the Ninja 400 would be a great way to start riding again after 30 years. I was in the Army when my bike was stolen. 2 months before I shipped out to South Korea, so I had cancelled my insurance to be able to save up some money for my new wife and son before I left. Therefore, it wasn't covered when it was stolen. Anyway, I thought this would be a good way to start riding again. Thank you for the great videos. You helped to make a rider out of me once again.

Got my case and bicycle mount so far from Rokform. Looking forward to trying it out on a mountain bike course.

I'm wookie-sized and this is on the short (no pun) list for me. FZ-07 is the other candidate. We need you to make sasquach friends for "tall rider" vids.

To be honest, Kawasaki 400 was my ideal bike for years. I never have one nor sport bike riding experience. I still like this bike.

Been cruising around on a little van van 200 for a couple of years and it’s between either a ninja 400 or CBR500R as my upgrade of choice. Still undecided.

I spent two months researching and mulling it over and I got the 2021 650 Ninja and I think it is the perfect bike and I have owned 72 motorcycles in my career.

Love your videos,

I can’t wait to buy a ninja 400 just waiting on the classes for the MSF and for the people who have the bike have you had any problems with it?

No problems so far. I got the 2020 KRT edition. I ride it on the highway and did 107 mph after breaking it in. Very good bike and can handle the interstate easily. I don't see myself upgrading. Why get a 600+ bike just to not be able to see the full potential on the street? I understand the SV650 and Ninja 650 but if you get a 400, there's no need for the 650. It's just slightly faster and heavier.

I live in a city filled with potholes and lots of uphills/downhills, so I am wondering if this bike will do ok on roads like this for commuting or is it gonna be like hell everyday? I am considering getting an Enduro bike just because of this reason but the downside is that they are not comfortable to ride on high speeds so i would prefer the ninja if it's capable to handle shitty roads.

Hopefully gonna be grabbing a brand new Ninja4 this year. I'm super excited about. I've been literally obsessed with the idea

I have a 2011 Honda CBR600 F as first bike, it can do everyting. Nice looks, nice sound and very nice handeling as well. I think i would grow out of the Ninja 400 much quicker. Stay safe :D greets from the Netherlands

FACT! This was another great video!

Can you lock your helmet on the buddy seat for travel? Or for when going into town? Like a gs500 has in his buddyseat

This is awesome 😂

Bad experience with mine... I’ve had the clutch replaced twice within 3K miles...i’m not a new rider , I know I didn’t burn out the clutch, I had an R6 met a girl, got married then sold the R6. I got back into riding mid last year, picked up the 400 in February and well where is it now? In a shop like it has been for 3 out of the 4 months i’ve had it....

Just bought a 2020 Ninja 400 ABS KRT over the weekend as my first bike. Of course I don't have the experience to say that I bought the absolute best bike in this class, but on my way home I knew that I made the right decision. Put almost 150 miles on it over 2 days, and I'm having an absolute blast. Even while trying to keep it below 6k rpm for the break-in period it's plenty fast. Of course I'm comparing this to no other bikes as well as my Subaru BRZ which is slow for a sportscar, but I'm a beginner and don't need to be going 150+ mph or pulling 10 second 1/4 miles.

Never saw that GPZ 250 back in the 90's. I had an '83 GPZ 305 though while all my boys were riding MB5's & XL100's.

Yo, Yammie! Are you planning to make a video for the new zx25r? I’m waiting for it to come to my country. Planning to buy it as soon as it gets here. I’d love to see your thoughts on that bike.

Yammie - "Created a new category." VFR/RVF400 (NC**) - "are we a joke to you?" (much better, yet much older bikes) Never mind the CBR400 and Gixer 400 etc

Gotta love the redundant history lessons and paid plugs to hit that sweet 10 minute mark!

I have this bike and love it; the quid's should take one on the tail. fun bikes for sure.

Looking for my first bike. Will you please help decide between the new Ninja 400 and the new Z400? Thank you YN for all your vids!

Just bought a 2000 CBR 600 f4 for my first bike. Gotta say its the damn best decision of my life 😌

What is the vibration like on the Ninja 400 doing 80 MPH on the freeway. I have a 85 mile commute each way every day (170 miles round drip).

I'm on an Iron 883 & I'm looking into a sport bike. I'm between this & the R3. I want something comfortable (Although I know it won't be as comfy as my Iron), something comfortable on the highway & some twisties. Based on the research I've made, supposedly the 400 is more comfortable than the R3? I'm not doing anything on a track. Just joyrides. I found myself kind out outgrowing the Iron quickly. I've been riding for a little more than a year now. I've also found myself kneeing down the Iron like an idiot because I want more lean angle and quicker around corners. I'm more about speed on corners than speed in a straight. Nimble and quick is better for me than massive HP & speed, which is why I think the 400 or the R3 kind of fits my needs. Thoughts anyone?

Why do I hate your videos, but still continue to watch them?

A question that's not related to the video. I was just checking if the O2 sensor connected to the exhaust header is needed I broke mine and it'll be a while before I get the part

When papa yam reads my brain my first time viewing this video... When I rewatch only to find out I did in fact see the SV650 everywhere after ninja 400 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
