Can you ride the Honda RVF400 on an A2 licence?
Yes, you can ride the Honda RVF400 (1994 - 1996) on an A2 motorbike licence. However, you will need to fit a restrictor kit to reduce its power output and make it A2 licence compliant!
Honda RVF400 (1994 - 1996)
The Honda RVF400 is a small-sized sports bike with a lot of things to offer. It is a reliable, fun to ride machine equipped with a powerful 400cc V4 engine that offers enough performance for all types of riding styles.
It comes with a stiff aluminium frame, single sided swingarm and big brakes. The build quality is excellent and you will be able to get a very high mileage out of this bike. Thanks to its lightweight construction and aerodynamic design, the Honda RVF400 can perform well on track. Additionally, its awesome handling and lower seat height make it an ideal bike for beginner riders.
Unfortunately, the 1994 Honda RVF400 NC35 was never officially brought into the UK and the bikes you will find on eBay have been imported. It is a big shame, because in the 90s, it was one of the best bikes in the category.
A2 Licence Compliance
The Honda RVF400 is a 399cc A2-friendly sport bike. It has a power output of 43 kW (59 bhp), which exceeds the 35 kW (47 bhp) limit needed for an A2 licence. The bike has to be restricted by at least 18.6% to become A2 licence compliant.
You will need a restrictor to ride the Honda RVF400 on an A2 motorbike licence. See the restrictor kits section to check out what restrictors are available for the Honda RVF400.
