Engine
· All-new 996cc DOHC four-valve 90 degree V-twin engine features identical 180-degree reversed heads and chain-driven camshafts. Horizontally split crankcase incorporates swingarm pivot and Pro Link bracket mounts at rear.
· Integrated upper crankcase/cylinder block casting contributes to lightweight. compact engine design.
· Nutless connecting rods feature bolts threaded directly into tapped holes in rods. Design is lighter than conventional bolt- and-nut combination. Connecting rods offer optimal balance of strength and durability.
· Lghtweight, skirtless slipper pistons reduce reciprocating mass.
· Chain-driven camshafts operate Honda's largest-ever valves by means of shimmed bucket lifters.
· 48mm slanted flat-valve CV carbs are the largest ever used on a Honda engine. They provide sharp, linear response and are fed by a large-capacity 8-liter airbox.
· High-accuracy, computer-controlled ignition system monitors engine speed and throttle angle for optimal perfor mance throughout the rev range. Includes 10,100-rpm rev limiter.
· Slim-tipped NGK VX spark plugs deliver excellent performance and enhanced rideability.
· Newly developed air-injection system designed into heads maintains optimum combustion efficiency.
· Six-speed transmission.
· 140mm, 10-plate hydraulic clutch.
· All stainless two-into-one-into-two exhaust system with 4.5-liter buffed stainless steel, canister-style mufflers.

· Side-mounted dual radiators utilize low pressure of airflow passing over outer surface of cowling to draw air through from inside. Side positioning permits flow of air to reach cylinders and exhaust pipes for enhanced cooling efficiency, while facilitating front-cylinder service. At low speeds, a large right-side fan blows air directly out to the side and away from the rider.
· Chain-driven water pump located in crook of V between cylinders.
· High-efficiency oil cooler mounted in front of forward cylinder head.

Chassis/Suspension
· Engine-mounted swingarm eliminates need for conventional pivot plates, allowing the twin-spar aluminum frame to weigh only 17.6 pounds. Features massive 0-section spars and curved box-section engine hanger-rails that reach back from the steering head to anchor directly on the engine, joining at the back to provide a solid mounting point for the top of the rear damper and the bolt-on seat rail.
· 41mm Honda Multi-Action System (HMAS) conventional cartridge front fork offers adjustable spring preload and rebound damping.
· Pro-Link rear suspension system, mounted directly to the engine cases, features large- volume 40mm damper with adjustable spring preload and rebound damping.
· Hybrid construction aluminum swingarm combines extruded spars with a rigid cast pivot section.
· Hollow-section triple-spoke cast aluminum wheels.
· Wide-profile jointless-belt-type radial tires. Recent manufacturing technology ensures ZR rating for confident long-term performance.
· Dual floating front disc brakes with four- piston calipers and sintered metal pads. The 296mm rotors are mated to their aluminum inner rotors with eight inserts (down from the conventional 10). The 220mm rear disc brake is stopped by a single-piston caliper.

Additional Features
· Three-piece halt-fairing provides good wind protection and excellent aerodynamics.
· Front fairing ports feed air to the cockpit to lighten handling at higher speeds and pro vide cooling airflow to the rider. Large side- ports maximize airflow through the side- mounted radiators and away from the rider.
· Fins on lower sides of fairing produce down-force at high speeds for enhanced cruising stability.

· Fuel tank designed with sculpted indents for knees and handlebars.
· One-piece seat cowl covers a compart ment with specially molded recesses to accommodate most U-locks and cable locking devices. (Locks not included.)
· Single headlight features new "free form" multi-curvature reflector and a clear lens for optimal brightness and reach.
