You guys in the rest of the world are going to have to stop flaunting your affordable, attractive, plentiful, small displacement retro bikes. Im getting depressed.

Kawasaki is way to go for small displacement  Smile

The best we're going to get is the upcoming w230.

None of that is relevant except as background for why I saw this pretty W400 for sale at the dealers.

I like the look of this bike; it reminds me of a Triumph Bonneville T120.

Not wanting to go off topic but $50 for a oem Honda filter is highway robbery

That's why I bought an aftermarket one.

By the way that's AU$50 US$33. Either way, highway robbery.

I think every person who has approached me about my w800 asked if it's a Triumph...it doesn't say "Kawasaki" anywhere prominent on the bike, just on the back of the seat.

um, please correct me if I'm wrong, but it appears that the W400 as well as the W650 and the w800 use shaft drive for the cams?  Darn, why are retro bikes so compelling....
