Honda VFR1200X Crosstourer

Honda VFR1200X Crosstourer

Date: 2012-05-30
The Crosstourer will deliver all the fun and excitement of a sports tourer; with the comfortable upright riding position and manoeuvrability of an adventure machine. This is underpinned by Honda's V4 expertise.

The Crosstourer is equipped with Honda's Traction Control System (TCS). This system monitors rear wheel speed, looking for fluctuations that could suggest an imminent loss of traction and, subsequently, machine control. If the system believes wheel-spin is imminent, engine power is momentarily reduced, maintaining traction. The system can be switched off in accordance with the rider's preferences.

Developed especially for this model, the Crosstourer spoked wheels have been designed to absorb the shocks generated by rough road surfaces, working with the machine's suspension systems to deliver a comfortably refined ride quality. Tyre sizes - 110/80-R19 at the front, 150/70-R17 at the rear - have been chosen to balance keen, agile handling with effortless traction.

The Combined Antilock Braking System, (C-ABS) incorporates both the easy control of a Combined Braking System and the extra reassurance of an Anti-lock Braking System. The CBS effectively balances front and rear braking control for smooth operation. At the same time, the Antilock Braking System provides extra reassurance and offers more confidence in braking power in unexpected or extreme situations.

The VFR1200X Crosstourer is also available in an Adventure model that includes a Top Box, Panniers, Main Stand, Cowl Kit, Screen, 12V Socket Kit and Heated Grips. Contact us at Honda Wing Umhlanga on 031 580 7900 or visit our showroom at 15 Meridian Avenue, Umhlanga Ridge.
