Inspired by both Honda's fantastic heritage in adventure motorcycling and our recent Dakar program, the True Adventure Prototype captures the product direction as Honda seeks to expand its presence in the Adventure segment. This prototype has been developed to deliver outstanding off-road capability, and could provide the basis of a true round-the-world motorcycle. It's influenced by the current Team HRC and the CRF450 RALLY.

Rumors are 750 to 1000 cc. These are the first photos of an actual machine out of Honda's skunkworks. There has also been some discussion on an auto/manual clutch-less handlebar shifter (like mountain bikes maybe?).

Update (Source, Indefinitely Wild):

  • 1,000cc, liquid-cooled parallel-twin motor housed in a steel tube cradle frame
  • airbox is outside the frame to maintain a large tank capacity
  • CRF1000L
  • Dual Clutch Transmission
  • 21" and 18" wheels



IMHO, that paint job is amazing.
