Introducing a new concept bike from Honda and its electric! Honda RC-E Concept, will this concept soon-to-be realized as a production model in the future? Only time will tell.
The moment I saw the concept RC-E I was smitten with the sleek, curvy but modern retro classic look, that reminds me, of a 1960 café racer. The stylish design doesn’t stray too far from the basic shapes and lines that we have in our minds; and expect Honda, with its engineering prowess, to build a concept project like this.
First previewed at Tokyo Motor Show 2011, back then was Honda’s much-awaited electric motorcycle.
The exquisite “rear mono-shock with multi-link suspension” simply justifies the incredible ability to absorb the impact from the road surface and reacts delicately. This architecture enables the rider to sense every inch of the road’s feedback. Upside-down front forks with a double triple clamp enhance the rigidity of the suspension system with full stability.
The braking system covers dual radial 4-piston front caliper + 275mm wave discs with steel braided brake hoses, delivering powerful braking force. With the assist of the precise ABS control, the ultimate braking performance is assured.
Too bad there wasn’t much update on the RCE after 2011. ☹
