Hi , Mr. Johan would you please send me the steed manual, I’m from India, I’ve searched a lot didn’t found.
@Johan, could you please send me a soft copy of the VLX400 Manual? Thanks. jmfatfree@gmail.com I’m actually considering this as one of my option when I get a bigger bike next year.
Btw, could you educate me as to what the fuel consumption of this bike is? I heard, the Honda CB400 Super Four consumes as much as 25kpl. Does it consume the same? Or the Steed is much more gas thriftier than the SF?
I have a Honda VLX400cc 2005 model. can somebody send me soft copy of Owners manual. I thank very much for your help.

hi guys
I have a full custom Honda steed 400.
Carb is giving me shit. It’s a side carb so not normal. But could you advise me on another carb I could look to buy that would suit the engine well?

any advice would be great!
