Honda is the world's largest manufacturer of motorcycles and the world's largest manufacturer of internal combustion engines, and the only manufacturer to have won an annual championship in both F1 and Moto GP. In the 42 Moto GPs since 1975, Honda won 18 times in the GP class (1000cc), and in 2016 won the championship with the excellent performance of Mark Marquez and the RC213V. In the Moto2 class, which is the 600cc class, the current standard engine is Honda's CBR 600RR, and other car manufacturers use their own frames to race. Honda has also won 6 titles at WSBK, finishing second behind Ducati's 14 in numbers.
 
Honda's toughness is not only manifested in road races, in the MXGP of cross-country racing, since 1970, Honda has won 14 championships, from 1984 to 1992 it won 9 consecutive championships, and in 1989 won the top 3, although the state has declined in the past ten years, but still won the second and third place in 2015, and won the championship again with CRF450RW in 2016, which also shows that Honda still has the strength of the championship level.
 
Aside from road and off-road racing, Honda is one of the best station wagons in the world, and the Gold Wing has been around for more than 40 years and has long been recognized as one of the most perfect grand tourers on the planet. In 2006, Honda also installed airbags on the Gold Wing for the first time, a first in the industry. Different from BMW's inline six-cylinder, Honda has developed a horizontally opposed six-cylinder engine specifically for the GL 1800, the weight distribution is very reasonable, the weight of the car is 414 kilograms, it is not difficult to drive, the whole machine runs very quietly, even if you step on the throttle deeply, the engine will not feel restless, it is still calm, compared to this, Harley's V-double can be said to be a complete failure.
 
Playing with Honda's motorcycles, it's hard to find the right model. CBR is Honda's main sales series, and the male upgrade (1000cc) is represented by the RC213V-S and CBR1000RR, the RC213V-S is a road-ready supercar on the MotoGP, with a price starting at $184,000, compared to the CBR1000RR $16,499, which is much more affordable, and it uses a water-cooled four-cylinder, 16-valve engine with a maximum horsepower of 190 hp. With a wet 6-speed anti-slip clutch and PGM DSFI electronic throttle, one-way quick shifts can be added, the frame form is FDC aluminum alloy double-wing beam frame, the front suspension is Ohlins Smart-EC inverted fork, the rear suspension Unit Pro-link is equipped with Ohlins TTX36 Smart EC monotube suspension, all of which are fully tuned, and the front wheels use dual 320mm brake discs with Brembo four-piston calipers and ABS. The rear wheels are 220mm with single-piston calipers. Honda makes motorcycles, never blindly increase output, to pay attention to control and durability, not only to be easy to play, but also to be durable, but also easy to maintain, and the concept of Europe and the United States is far from the concept.
 
The newly launched CBR250RR re-empowers the 250cc small-displacement sports car, which represents Honda's highest performance, with a peak torque of 38hp and 16.96ft-lb. Best-in-class electronic systems, including Throttle by wire throttle-by-wire, Comfort, Sport, Sport three driving modes, and optional ABS anti-lock braking system; Best-in-class hardware includes a SHOWA 37mm inverted fork, gullwing alloy swingarm, a new lightweight frame and a pre-loaded 5-speed adjustable Pro link rear suspension. CBR250RR debuted in Indonesia at a price of 32,000 yuan, which is definitely a model that is suitable for both entry and high-play.
 
250cc is the most in line with China's road conditions, not to meet the small displacement and the technology has reached a considerable level of friends can be on the middle displacement, and the middle displacement is also the end of most riders, in the CBR series, although the CBR600RR of the medium displacement has been discontinued, but you can still choose CBR650F and CBR500R. The first CBR650F, although its price of $8500 is $2000 higher than that of the CBR500R, but CBR650F Honda's positioning is Supersport, and there is only a small gap in performance with the CBR600RR of Superbike, the water-cooled four-cylinder gives a maximum of 82 horsepower, and the rear suspension has 7 levels of adjustable preload, CBR500R although it is a Pro link 9-stage adjustable rear suspension, but the water-cooled parallel twin cylinder 50 horsepower, I always feel a little itchy after starting CBR650F.
