I have the CB400SS which is the sister bike with a low exhaust pipe. I like it as it is very lightweight and the mechanics are straightforward. There is a Yahoo group (well only me in it so far!) at .....
http://autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/HondaCB400SS/......where you can find a road test, owners manual etc. I would also look at the CB400SS as well as the CL version unless you particularly like the high pipes.
I have spoken with a chap who was riding the 400CL and he very much liked it, as long as you are not in a hurry.
