Young machine has rendered the frontal portion of
the 2018 Honda CB400 SF (Super Four) and the 2018 Honda CB1300 SB (Super Bol
D’or), with LED lights.
As per the rendering of the Japanese site, the 2018
Honda CB400 SF features a circular LED headlamp. The design of the headlamp is
similar to the one that is currently used in the Honda CB1100 EX. The headlamp
gets four LEDs on top for low beam, and four at the bottom. High beam uses all
the LEDs for maximum illumination. However, the indicators continue to be
traditional units. The Honda CB1300 SB on the other hand gets LED indicators in
addition to the stock LED headlamp. The current generation CB1300SB uses
bulb-type indicators.
The media site also reports that Honda may launch
the 25th anniversary model of the 2018 Honda CB1300 SB in late October. The
Japanese brand will showcase the 2018 Honda CB400 SF and the Honda CB1300 SB at
the 2017 Tokyo Motor Show held from October 25 to November 5.
