Honda unveiled its 2020 European line up at the EICMA 2019 with 3 of the total products unveiled to soon come to India.
- 1 – CBR1000RR-R Fireblade and CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP
For 2020, Honda starts a new chapter in the Fireblade’s illustrious history with a new machine that is ‘Born to Race’. Heavily inspired by the RC213V MotoGP machine and its street legal RC213V-S counterpart, the 2020 CBR1000RR-R Fireblade is powered by the most powerful inline four-cylinder engine that Honda has ever made. The CBR1000RR-R will also be available in an SP variant.
- 2 – CRF1100L Africa Twin Adventure Sports
Powered by a lighter more powerful 1100cc parallel twin engine – increasing both power and torque – the Africa Twin uses a lighter, narrower frame, improving both agility and comfort. The CRF1100L Africa Twin Adventure Sports stands apart, coming fully equipped for the long haul with a five-stage adjustable screen, three stage cornering lights, tubeless tyres and a 24.8L tank.
- 3 – CB1000R
Honda’s flagship Neo Sports Café naked machine – CB1000R – combines classic lines with a modern feel and exhilarating performance. Since its introduction, it has inspired a wide range of customisations, and for 2020, subtle cosmetic changes further enhance its premium look and commanding road presence.
