NM4 motorcycle from Honda unveiled in Japan show

Motorcycle major Honda of Japan has unveiled the world premiere of two types of its new production model "NM4" as an exhibition model (planned for production), according to a press statement from the company. The announcement was made at a press conference at the 30th Osaka Motorcycle Show 2014.

The NM4 was developed under the keywords of "the Neo-futuristic" and "Cool," pursuing new, unique styling. This NM4 was designed to realise two points; the design concept "the Front Massive Styling" and "the cockpit position" focusing on the sense of unity with the rider, that the rider can smoothly get onto the vehicle.

In order to provide good ride feel, the motorcycle has been designed in such a way that it has a low-setup cockpit position and adjustable backrest. The instrument panel too provides clear readability. LED lamps form part of the headlight of the powerful-looking front fairing, the tail lamp and the turn signals. In addition, the utility boxes are set up on the right and left sides of the front fairing for small articles.

Two NM4 types were unveiled at the motorcycle show--- the simply-configured "NM4-01" which emphasises its wide, dynamic rear tire and attractive low silhouette, and the "NM4-02” which emanates a unique presence and features a prominent rear design (containing utility boxes on each side of the rear body)
