Re: WK400 owners thread.
very quite on the WK front, ...........mine is still going strong with no issues and over 4300 miles from new. Not seen another one in the flesh on my travels and still gets some attention at some bike friendly cafes i may visit at the weekends 
..........last weekend in particular at route 1066 cafe Robertsbridge was very busy and managed a 100 miles round trip that day...........my back did suffer as a consequence though the next day. 
Found 4 used WK400's on the web, two on the bay, one on Gumtree and one on Biketrader, shame no one who also has one is near to the South Coast as be good to meet up and compare notes on pro and cons of owning and to see another on the road...........maybe i should try to start a WK400 owners club............mmmmm.........it would be very exclusive

Re: WK400 owners thread.
They look like a good bike
.....
I can't understand why more weren't sold in the UK,... I've got a Honley RX3 and it's the same sort of thing, I've never seen another one

Re: WK400 owners thread.
indeed be good to know how many are actually in use in the UK.............the Honley RX3 looks a great bike and the spec gives it a better top end than the WK400 although its not about speed when you own these types of bikes, your engine looks up to date as well compared to the WK

...Got to say both of the bikes are very good value for money
Re: WK400 owners thread.
Mine hit 6k last weekend. Other than the casing hole{my fault for dropping it) it's been great.
Still on the Kendas and still the same chain/sprockets with plenty of life

Re: WK400 owners thread.
yes, new one came in end of Jan and a friend fitted it. Needed two to get the crash bars back in place.
The strange thing was inside the casing where the hole was was a smiley face.

Re: WK400 owners thread.
Lol.....not sure whats more disturbing ........the thought of a Chinese worker putting a smiley on the inside casing. .....assuming this was done with a very special type of pen !!!!!!!!!!?...........or the need to have two people to get the crash bars stretched into place.....
Same here though tyres chain and bike all doing well.....only issue is the exhaust headers got a dose of surface rust so have done a coat of spray enamel once or twice to keep looking ok
