Tokyo Motor Show - Honda Concept Bike
The Honda DN-01 pictured is one of the most interesting. Perhaps another hybridization of motorcycles and scooters, the DN-01 is very special.
The scooter aspects include the ergonomics (the low seating position ), the use of floorboards, and the automatic transmission.
Infinitely Variable HFT Transmission Delivers a Revolutionary Riding Feel.
This new-generation infinitely variable transmission delivers superb throttle response and stepless shifting, with no mid-corner shifting shocks. Riders can select from three shifting modes: Drive Mode, Sports Mode and 6-Speed Manual Mode. Moreover, the HFT offers the world's first* lock-up mechanism in an infinitely variable, hydraulic mechanical transmission. Powered by a 680cc V-twin engine, this machine realizes novel levels of comfort and sportiness.
For those of you who have not ridden a large displacement scooter, the lower center of gravity created by placing the rider lower in the frame offers some significant handling benefits -- potentially, even for a sports bike. Note that the ground clearance on the DN-01 concept appears quite generous. This could be a canyon carver, as much as a cruiser.
