The four-cylinder engine is suspended below two aluminum box girders as on contemporary [[Grand Prix]] machines The inclined cylinders, which allow the use of straight-line intake tracts, the 16-valve head, and the Exup system of a valve in the exhaust, give the machine a fierce temperament allied to great flexibility and an astonishing power output equivalent to 152 hp per liter. Lively and agile, the FZR400R draws full profit from its sensational power/weight ratio. Its riders discover that a highly tuned machine of moderate displacement is more efficient, in most cases, than a "big hanger," which needs a very particular environment to give its best. | The four-cylinder engine is suspended below two aluminum box girders as on contemporary [[Grand Prix]] machines The inclined cylinders, which allow the use of straight-line intake tracts, the 16-valve head, and the Exup system of a valve in the exhaust, give the machine a fierce temperament allied to great flexibility and an astonishing power output equivalent to 152 hp per liter.
