With the EICMA Show to kick off next week in Milan, Honda has decided to tease us with a third and full design sketch of their V4 Crossover adventure bike and little PR to go with it, before releasing the production bike and specs at the show.
According to Honda “this mid-range machine is an exciting new approach – a crossover machine that represents the best aspects of two separate biking genres.
” It will have “flexibility and exciting attitude of a Naked performance machine, with the more comfortable upright riding position and design cues inspired by adventure bikes.
” Adding that the bike has a “low centre of gravity, similar to that of a performance bike, and has wide handlebars and an upright riding position to aid manoeuverability and comfort.
” Honda research studies say that customers want a machine that has “both a unique style and is also fun to ride in all conditions throughout the year”.
