Looks - Honda has done justice when it comes to looks and styling, the robust fuel tank featuring plastic cladding lends muscular stance to the bike. The sharp creases on the bike work well for the overall look. Up front is a pleasantly designed head lamp reminiscent of CB 600F. There is a sporty digital speedometer displaying all necessary information for the driver. Handlebar is flat and switch gear seems very elementary. Palm grips are nice and grippe and the X-shaped tail lamp at rear is catchy.
Engine Specifications & Transmission - The 162.71cc, four stroke, air-cooled engine develops 15.7bhp at 8500 RPM and 1.5 k gm torque at 6500 RPM. A five-speed manual gearbox is mated to the engine and it does its job really well. Weighing 140 kg, the power to weight ratio is appreciable.
Features - The digital speedometer gets a tachometer, fuel warning indicator, fuel gauge, trip meter etc. Other features available on the bike are pass light, pillion seat with a grab rail etc. Moreover, the engine comes with electric start.
Performance & Mileage - Performance is at its peak at high speeds, but the engine is a bit noisy. Claimed fuel economy for this Japanese offering is excellent at 62 km in a liter.
Braking & Handling - Front gets 276 mm petal disc brakes in front and 220 mm disc brakes at rear with additional anti-lock-braking system in front. There is also an option of a 130 mm drum brake at rear placed on the box-section swing arm. Yet another vital feature, ‘Combined Brake System’ is also available as an optional fitment. Telescopic suspension is set in front and rear features mono shock suspension. The upright position of the seat makes the rider lean forward and the foot pegs placed at back render a sporty stance to the bike.
Wheels & Tyre's - 17 inch five-spoke alloy wheels are shod with 100/80-17 tubeless tyres up front and 140/70-17 tubeless tyres at rear. The tyres are massive and provide good grip on road.
