For 1981 Honda gave the Japanese Wing GL400 a substantial update: twin front discs with two-piston calipers, semi-air front forks, a halogen headlight and full-transistor ignition, with slightly better fuel economy. The engine figures stayed at 40 PS. It was the last of the GL400 line before Honda moved the 400 twin into the CX-EURO in 1982.
