Motorcycle Overview
Universally considered one of Hondas most illustrious race-bred sportbikes, the Interceptor is also arguably one of the best all-around streetbikes ever made. Featuring a fuel-injected, VTEC-equipped V-4, aluminum chassis, comfortable, all-day ergos and an all-new color scheme for 08, this is a machine, though born of the track, whose razor-sharp performance is equally at home on any paved surface.
Engine & Performance
- 781cc V-4 Liquid-Cooled Engine: Delivers smooth power delivery and distinct exhaust notes.
- VTEC Variable Valve Timing: Operates on two valves per cylinder below 6,400 rpm for efficiency and low-end torque, then shifts to four valves per cylinder past 6,400 rpm for high-rev horsepower.
- Programmed Fuel Injection (PGM-FI): Ensures sharp throttle response and clean fuel delivery.
- Six-Speed Transmission: Close-ratio gearbox paired with an O-ring sealed chain final drive.
Chassis & Handling
- Aluminum Twin-Spar Frame: Rigid, lightweight chassis designed for razor-sharp handling.
- 43mm HMAS Cartridge Front Fork: Offers compliant, controlled front suspension performance.
- Pro-Link Single-Sided Swingarm: Enhances rear wheel stability and eases maintenance.
- 17-Inch Radial Tires: Fitted with 120/70ZR-17 front and 180/55ZR-17 rear tires on cast-aluminum wheels. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
Braking & Safety
- Linked Braking System (LBS): Front-to-rear integration where the rear pedal activates outer pistons on the front dual calipers for balanced stopping.
- Optional ABS: Advanced Anti-Lock Braking System available on an upgraded trim level for superior control in low-traction scenarios.
- Dual Front Discs: Full-floating 296mm front rotors with 3-piston calipers alongside a 256mm rear disc.
