Honda X-Blade 160

Introduction:

Bangladesh Honda Pvt. Ltd. (BHL) officially launched the brand new HONDA X Blade sports commuter in Bangladesh. It will have almost all the features similar to the HONDA CB Hornet 160R in terms of technologies but the styling and other riding aids are going to be different as this is going to be sold as a more comfort-oriented bike.

History:

HONDA X Blade was first launched in December 2018 in India. In Bangladesh, the launch date was done with a two-day event in the International Convention City, Bashundhara in 13-14 December of 2019. Bikers of the country received this bike with great joy at the launch of this new bike.

Honda X-Blade 160 Features:

Being a sports commuter from HONDA, the most special thing about HONDA X Blade is not the engine or the spec figures, but the way it looks. Because the engine is the same as the HONDA CB Hornet 160R and the changes are in dimensions and ergonomics. Ever since its first global display, its robotic headlamp caught the attention of everyone, so did its full digital speedometer which comes directly from Honda CBR150R Indonesian Edition.

The headlights and taillights are both completely LED. There is Automatic Headlight On (AHO) feature along with Hazard Lights. The bike has a dual-port exhaust system with a chrome tip that gives a throaty sound. The stance is upright and the bike has a long visor to aid the looks of a sports tourer. The seat is long and comfortable.

The colors available for HONDA X Blade are all very attractive. Currently, the Honda x blade colors in Bangladesh are:

• Pearl Spartan Red
• Pearl Igneous Black
• Matte Marshal Green Metallic
• Matte Marvel Blue Metallic

This bike has a muscular stance aided by wide tyres and a big muffler all of which increase the presence of the bike. The X- shaped taillight is also a charm to look at.  The beautiful decals on the stylish panels leave a trace on the onlookers’ minds even long after you whizzed past them.

Body Dimensions:

The all-new HONDA X Blade is a really good performing motorcycle. Thanks to its diamond frame, it ensures proper handling dynamics while riding. The wheelbase is 1347mm on which the 141 kg bike stands. The bike is balanced so well that it is very agile yet stable.

Best For:
