I agree 100%. A 400 would be the perfect size IMO, provided that it’s actually lighter and not just a sleeved 650 like the Ninja you mentioned.
Now that Kawasaki has abandoned the 500cc market it seems that the 500 market is dying as well. Suzuki’s GS is all that’s left of the 500cc motorcycle market and I’m willing to bet it won’t be around forever either. Soon beginners won’t have anything to choose from between 250s which may not be enough for some people (although more due to suspension capacity or physical size than engine) and 650s. We need SOMETHING in between there.
