The upcoming Honda V4 superbike has been rendered by
the Japanese magazine Young Machine. The motorcycle will not be as exclusive as
the Honda RC213V-S but will still have a limited production run.
The motorcycle will be powered by a V4 powertrain
which can be traced back to Honda’s MotoGP challenger, the Honda RC213V. The
Honda V4 is expected to get LED projector headlamps. The bike can be expected
with integrated winglets for downforce.
The single seater motorcycle is also expected to get
air scoops and winglets which will be aimed to make the bike aerodynamically
efficient. The bike is also expected to get a single side mounted canister
exhaust.
If the 2017 Honda CBR1000RR Fireblade range’s price
tag is anything to go by, the Honda V4 superbike will also be priced at a
premium. However, it would not be as expensive as the US$ 184,000 Honda
RC213V-S.
The Honda V4 superbike is expected to be showcased
in 2018 with a launch in 2019.
