At the Italian launch for the R1, company officials made much ballyhoo about the origin of the electronic rider aids &Motorcycle Handle control systems company8211; supposedly, they’re very similar to what you’d find on their factory MotoGP machine, and they even got Valentino Rossi on-stage to say so. The electronic aids include four-level engine power delivery management (from wet mode to race mode), a traction control system, a slide control system (that automatically cuts in when it detects rear wheel slide), an anti-wheelie system, a launch control system and a quick shifter.

The bike features fully digital instrumentation

CRF 250 RallyHonda showed off its CRF250 Rally at the Tokyo Motorcycle Show shod with Michelin T63 rubber as a way of emphasizing the bike’s off-road capabilities.I spoke with a Honda rep who said that the concept was based on the idea of making a commuter bike that was both fun and light, but that didn’t skimp on the riding experience. The bike’s focus is to be a &8216;lovable Motorcycle Power Relays partner’ during its journeys, which suggests that this will not conquer the Dakar anytime soon. With 17″ wheels front and rear, # a single-sided swingarm and very sharp looking wheels, the bike looks to tick a lot of the boxes for riders in the Asian markets.Seat height:

The bike has a 730 mm seat height, which should make it viable for a large number of riders. The SFA (Small Fun Advance) features a liquid-cooled, 4-stroke, DOHC, 4-valve, single-cylinder engine with a whopping 150 cc displacement.The bike features fully digital instrumentation, with the main display indicating speed, RPM, etc. It got a LOT of interest among the press and visitors, however, so despite having relatively humdrum specs,

it may have a very interested audience.

The 15″ hoops front and rear should make for a flickable mount, although one would think that sizing would significantly limit the available rubber.The looks are quite utilitarian, but its specifications suggest less than full-on off-road capabilities.Engine: Liquid-cooled, 4-stroke, DOHC, 4-valveDisplacement: 249 ccTransmission: 6-speedWheels: 21″ front, 18″ rear.The Honda rep with whom I spoke suggested that the bike would be manufactured in India and sold throughout the Asian and East Asian markets.

The rest of the bike is fairly pedestrian, with its conventional forks, box swingarm and bloody low clearance. With 21″ skins on the front and an 18-incher on the rear, the availability of rubber will not be an issue.

The CB4 takes the same platform and makes a retro-esque

Do you want an adventure bike with feet-forward riding and no tank to grip to when things get rough? Probably not, but it definitely looks the part.And then there’s the Six50 and CB4. Both styling exercises courtesy of Honda Europe, the Six50 takes the CBR650F platform and turns into a very sexy and attention grabbing scrambler – even if a four cylinder is not the most obvious choice for such a vehicle. The CB4 takes the same platform and makes a retro-esque machine with a tip of the hat to the Honda CB400/4.HONDA’S CB500F GETS VISUAL UPDATEBig Red’s naked bike gets new clothes.
