The April Roadracing World has an in-depth review of the 400 FYI. Chris Ulrich does his usual thorough job.
The first paragraph tells you a lot of what you need to know about this bike:
"I can count how many times I have thrown a leg over an entry level sportbike on one hand. Being a horsepower junky, I tend to gravitate toward 1000cc motorcycles. My small-bike snobbery has been purely performance-based: Sportbikes based on Superbikes have beefy frames and stiff (adjustable) suspension that allows me to ride the bike as hard as I can without getting bored. But that was before I threw a leg over the 2018 Kawasaki Ninja 400."
Needless to say, he was impressed. Forthright about its limitations, too. Pretty clear that Kawi has a winner here.
