The model is distinguished by an impressive mass, but at the same time outlined handling and unsurpassedly smooth motor characteristic. Copy V - MAX did not begin (the device is more about the stylistics recycled for the races of neoclassics), but they actually corrected all its disadvantages. And only by 1997 they managed to embody the dream in the "iron" - a 1300-cubic motorcycle with a long base, powerful brakes and an energy-intensive suspension appeared in front of the "annealing" fans in a straight line. For almost a decade, Honda designers have kept the idea of \u200b\u200bbuilding an ultimative DR E E., capable of moving the cult Yamaha V - Max. But during this time, the rivals can forget the essence of the problem.
p., $ 8500-12500Īs you know, one needs anything to find a worthy answer, and by other many years. Otherwise, where does he have so many fans? But, nevertheless, the huge popularity of Honda X4 gave everyone to understand that this charismatic motorcycle turned out to be a very successful model, despite all its shortcomings. True, the competitor "V-Max" did not work out of it - with the famous muscle bike from Yamaha X4, the relative appetite and a small benzobak, and so leaves from Honda, leaving the latter far behind. Still, the motorcycle is very wide and heavy, which makes a slightly maneuvering in urban traffic jams, albeit a small height of the saddle and facilitates this task.Īs a result, Honda turned out a very ambiguous motorcycle.
Sitting conveniently, steering is convenient - with amendment to the fact that growth is required no less than average and good physical strength to cope with Honda X4 at low speeds. In terms of landing and ergonomics, a motorcycle, of course, at a height. However, it is hardly the most popular among the owners of Honda X4 tuning is the benzobacker's handling in order to increase its volume. Thus, the stroke reserve is completely small, and strongly limits the scope of the use of a motorcycle.
And consumes X4, by the way, more noticeably more - ten liters of AI-92 in a mixed cycle go easily, even if not squeezing out of the motorcycle everything is capable of. You can not say anything good and about the volume of gas tank Honda X4 - it is already a whole 13 liters! On the CB1300, equipped with the same engine, was 21 liters. In the case of CB 1300, soft and comfortable pendants are not a minus - this is a classic universal road motorcycle, but X4 is positioned, like an evil and "muscular" bike, and for him this behavior is undesirable. Although the plug is frankly weak - when braking, it is noticeable "pecks", and at the race on the pit it can easily break through. This, however, is treated with some tuning. It is a pity that it is impossible to say the same brake discs - like the same three brake discs, as well as on the aforementioned CB 1300, but at the same time subjectively, there seems to be a little on Honda X4. The engine is very and very reliable, and the gearbox runs immaculately. However, Honda never did bad motorcycles, and X4 did not exception. However, many owners are "squealing" a motorcycle, but most grabs and 180 kilometers per hour, especially since the brutal dynamics X4 evaporates after about 150 km / h, as in the case of, for example, almost two-liter. True, all motorcycles of this model were produced for the domestic market in Japan, so the maximum speed is limited to a 180 km / h mark. No, seriously - Honda X4 accelerates very, very powerful, leaving the majority of other motorcycles behind. The motor was borrowed with some changes, but the main thing remained unchanged is a huge, a 100-strong motor, capable of shooting a motorcycle from the start, like from the catapult.
The 1300-cubic four-cylinder engine Honda X4 relates it to the largest "classic" in the Honda line. A very kind of motorcycle, which has been produced in just a few years X4 for a short time acquired a whole army of fans, and remains very popular and now. An interesting attempt "Honda" to release a competitor to the market for a famous Yamaha V-Max 1200.
