HONDACB400T II Hawk 1978 - 1979

　　The Honda CB400T was a motorcycle part of the CB series in Honda's range known as the Dream in the UK market and as the Hawk in the US market. In the UK market, the bike was also available in a smaller 250cc version for licensing reasons, and in the US market was available in three different versions.

　　The Hawk I was the budget model of the lineup and featured wire-spoked wheels with both front and rear drum brakes, the Hawk II was the sport model that packed aluminum wheels with a single front disc brake, and the Hondamatic model featured a two-speed semi-automatic transmission with a torque converter and two manually selectable forward gears.

　　In 1979, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the CB400T II Hawk, which was the sport model of the lineup, with specifications similar to the UK version, aluminum wheels, and a front disc braking system. Also, the instrument panel included a tachometer and a speedometer, and an electric starter that supplemented the kick starter.

　　For suspension, the bike packed a telescopic fork on the front and dual EVO shock absorbers with five-way spring preload adjustability on the rear.

　　In the performance department, the 1979 Honda CB400T II Hawk took its muscles from a 395cc four-stroke parallel twin air-cooled engine fed by two Keihin carburetors that helped deliver an output power of 34 hp with maximum strength at 9,500 rpm and 29 Nm (21lb-ft) of torque available at 8,000 rpm.
