The Indian Bike Market seems to be expanding beyond the confines it had set for itself in the past. In a recent update new images of the possible next Cafe Racer Style bike of the new Royal Enfield have been circulating around the internet. The bike would go against the likes of competitors that would soon be launched or are already in the market, These would include BMW, KTM and about to be launched Triumph Thruxton.
New Honda Cafe Racer
As per the images that have bene doing rounds over the internet it has become apparent that the new bike would be a full fledged Cafe Racer. The bike has a circular instrument pod, aligned with a digital unit. Beyond that the bike would have a wire spoke wheels with a single seat for the rider. Its the seat configuration that causes intrigue-as Honda would not possibly launch a bike with a single seating capacity.
Engine Specs
The bike would possibly have a 300 cc air cooled single cylinder engine. The engine would be the same that has been seen on other international bikes as well such as the cb 300 f or the cb 300 f twister- the engine makes 24.5 h along with a peak torque of 25.5 NM mated to a 6 speed gearbox. If the bike makes it to India it would possibly be powered by a 350 cc engine that powers the other cb350 line up of bikes.
The Bike would possibly have a light power to weight ratio that would allow the bike to ride more aggressively with better acceleration. The bike would have USD forks at front , and a monoshock at the rear of the bike. Beyond that it would have a have a disc brakes at both ends. the bike seemingly has a double cradle frame.
