It's going to be a dud...
One of the link sent me to an article about the sr400...
It made me shudder.. I owned 2.5 (.5 was a parts bike) sr500s.. I got rid of em as they were kick start bikes. There's a trick but they were finicky.
That said even when could get em started, they weren't great.. I liked em as they were basic small and fun, but I was also with folks with other singles.. They were great as a 3rd bike where others were on similar small displacement bikes. With any other type of bikes, it's not that fun.. it's got some classic styling, but other that the quick trip to the store, probably not so much..
As I understand it, the small displament wars are on.. Kawasaki has a parallel twin 400 coming (and the rumor is an naked version as well) for a few hundred more with far more support that what'd you get from this... yeah it won't have the styling, but you'll get more.
