Honda CBR400F Formula 3 Replica

Description

So, I’ve got this old Honda CBR400F Formula 3 replica — one of those rare Japanese imports from '85, only about 1,000 made, I think. It’s a 4-cylinder, the kind that had that special valve system and rev mechanism — pretty cool when it was new, and it’s still running well now.

I’ve had it for a few years, kept it in good shape, and had it properly serviced recently. It’s got 31,658 km on the clock, and the MOT’s valid until February 2026. The bike isn’t perfect — it’s 40 years old, so there’s some age-related wear, like minor corrosion and a few dents. It’s not a showroom machine, but it’s solid and rides well.

It’s based in Latheron, Highland, so if you’re coming to check it out, please call ahead. We don’t do drop-offs or last-minute visits — no point in you travelling all the way just to find it’s sold.

I’m Mark or Marcus — we run Torbay Motorcycles, which has been around since 1936, so we’ve got decades of experience with classic bikes. We’ve got a proper workshop on site, MOT station, and we’re hands-on with every bike we sell.

If you’re interested, just give us a ring — either Mark or Marcus, 01626 352527. We’ll arrange a time to show you around, and if you want to see a walk-around video, it’s on our Facebook page.

We’ve got about 50 bikes in stock, mostly older classics, so if you’re into that kind of thing, you might find something else too.

And yeah — it’s not brand new, and it won’t be spotless. But if you’ve got a taste for vintage bikes and don’t mind a bit of history and character, this one might be worth a look.

We’re not here to sell like a showroom — we’re just two guys who’ve been around the block, and we want to help you find something that fits your ride.

Call us, talk to us like you’d talk to a friend — we respond better to that.

Thanks,
Mark & Marcus

P.S. The price is £4,495.50 — but that’s not what matters. What matters is whether it’s something you’d actually want to ride.
