Honda updates its VFR800X for 2015
Completely revised styling, a retuned engine and several other technical changes mark out the just-revealed 2015 Honda VFR800X Crossrunner.
An aluminium twin-beam frame remains at the sports tourer’s core, but now attached to it are a lighter sub-frame and an aluminium swingarm. Other chassis modifications include new alloy wheels, upgraded brakes and an increase in suspension travel.
Power from the V4 VTEC-equipped engine has been raised slightly to 104 bhp (78 kW / 106 PS) at 10,250 rpm. To complement that extra output, low- and mid-range torque delivery has also been improved.
The bike’s enhanced standard equipment list includes heated grips, a height-adjustable saddle, LED lights and self-cancelling indicators. Also fitted is the S-TCS traction control system which can be set to two sensitivity levels (or turned off entirely).
UK sales of the 2015 Honda VFR800X Crossrunner are due to begin in December, following an appearance at November’s Motorcycle Live event. Pricing has yet to be announced.
