Engine/Drivetrain

- Liquid-cooled inline four-cylinder engine features Honda's Programmed Fuel Injection (PGM-FI) system.

- Dual overhead camshafts actuate four valves per cylinder. This layout allows a high degree of freedom in cylinder head design for optimum performance.

- The camshafts are driven by a silent-type cam chain for reduced engine friction, and the surfaces of the cam-chain pins are treated with vanadium for lower friction and increased toughness.

- The piston pins and connecting rods are treated with a special friction-reducing protective coating for greater durability and efficiency.

- Cylinders are inclined at a 30-degree angle to help lower the center of gravity (CG) for more agile handling.

Chassis/Suspension

- The frame incorporates elliptically shaped twin 64mm x 30mm steel spars for tuned flex to deliver excellent sport riding characteristics.

- The engine is incorporated as a stressed member of the frame, an efficient layout for enhanced handling.

- Single-shock rear suspension is actuated directly by the strong yet lightweight aluminum swingarm for 5.0 inches of rear-wheel travel.

- Shock spring preload is adjustable in seven steps to accommodate variations in load and riding conditions.

- Large, 41mm fork with 4.3 inches of travel for a well-controlled yet comfortable ride.

- Lightweight cast-aluminum wheels with 120/70ZR-17 tire in front and 180/55ZR-17 rear for full sport bike capabilities.

- Wave-type dual front 320mm disc brakes and 240mm rear give strong stopping power and lend a stylish touch while also saving unsprung weight.

- Honda's ABS system is available for more confident stopping in challenging conditions.
