2022 Mash TT40 400cc

the TT40 Cafe Racer, Every element of a home-brewed racer for the road is there: the ribbed seat with the racing hump, graceful half fairing, and spoked alloy rims. They've got the details right too – the bar-end mirrors and tiny teardrop indicators look like they were ordered from a custom catalog circa 1966. To back all this up, there are matching analog clocks, low-set bars, and rear-set footrests. The TT40 might be a pastiche, but it's pretty good. The hardware spec is almost as retro as the styling. If you remember Honda's XBR (a sort of retro bike), this is the same SOHC four-valve single, though now made in China by Shineray, downsized to 399cc and with fuel injection. In a mild state of tune, it puts out 27.6bhp at 7500rpm, and 22lb ft at 5500rpm. This engine is housed in a twin-shock tubular steel frame with simple, non-adjustable front forks and a five-speed gearbox. True, the bike does have ABS, but apart from that there's none of the clever electronic stuff. Putting this cafe racer in the realms of a true classic and living up to its heritage.
