It’s impossible. You simply can’t look at the Honda CBR125R and not start imagining all the fun you could have. Inexpensive to own and easy to operate, the CBR125R was designed to give novice riders confidence while they learn, while also being fun and practical for more experienced riders. The lightweight chassis, low-effort controls, comfortable seat height that makes it easy for your feet to reach the ground at stoplights, and responsive, hard-to-stall engine with PGM-FI electronic fuel injection, all help make the CBR125R the perfect choice for all types of riders, and all types of riding.

The Honda CBR250R has the user-friendly operation and comfortable size and weight that make it perfect for novice riders or those stepping up from the CBR125R. But if experienced riders overlook it because they think engine displacement is the sole measure of a motorcycle’s appeal, then they’ll be missing out on a bike that redefines fun on two wheels. Purpose-built just for this bike, the CBR250R’s 249 cc liquid-cooled single features PGM-FI electronic fuel injection, DOHC four-valve cylinder head, a 10,500 rpm redline, stacked transmission shafts, and more...

The CBR250RA is far removed from the sort of basic commuter bike often found in this class – it’s a true Honda sportbike loaded with sophisticated engineering and high-tech components. The good stuff starts with the CBR250RA’s jewel of an engine. Purpose-built just for this bike, the 249 cc liquid-cooled single with PGM-FI electronic fuel injection was conceived, engineered and built to provide an optimum torque curve for street riding, impressive top-end power, and the superior power-to-weight ratio that makes riding a high-performance 250 so exciting.

Experienced riders and those newer to motorcycling agree: the Honda CBF600SA has the sort of user-friendly character that makes you smile every time you arc through a tight corner or head out two-up on a sport-touring adventure. The 599 cc DOHC inline-four engine with PGM-FI electronic fuel injection creates its power in a smooth, linear fashion — perfect for building your confidence, yet plenty strong for spirited riding.

The all-new Honda NC700SA is a bike that you’ll want to ride just about every day, and just about everywhere. Its low-revving 670 cc twin-cylinder engine produces oodles of user-friendly torque, making it perfect for the cut and thrust of city traffic. And it sounds and feels like no other engine out there, with a pleasing cadence as you twist the throttle that mellows to a smooth rumble as you settle in to a cruising pace on the highway.

It’s a jungle out there. City traffic, gravel backroads, construction zones, inclement weather... Is there a bike that can not only tackle all this, but actually make it fun? You bet there is: the all-new Honda NC700XA. What makes the NC700XA so practical for taming the jungle – including its huge storage area where the gas tank would be on most bikes – are also the things that make it such a joy to ride, on the street, highway, gravel road, you name it.

You want a bike with a racing pedigree for occasional track days, but it’s got to be comfortable and practical for everyday street riding, too. That’s a hard bill to fill, but there’s one bike that has gained a hard-earned reputation for both race-track prowess and real-world usability: the remarkable Honda CBR600RRA.

Ask anyone who’s ridden one, and they’ll tell you that the Honda CBF1000A wins you over every time you ride it. Its 998 cc DOHC inline-four engine with PGM-FI electronic fuel injection is tuned to deliver rich low-to-midrange power as well as high-rpm thrills, and a light but strong aluminum frame plus premium suspension components ensure solid, count-on-it responsiveness where the rubber meets the road.

With a stunning blend of snarling, take-no-prisoners attitude and easy everyday rideability, the CB1000RA feels perfectly at home cruising city streets or snaking through twisty backroads. Packing the punch of a litre-class superbike, its CBR-derived fuel-injected 998 cc inline-four engine features enhanced low-to-midrange torque for extra oomph in the tight quarters of the city, while retaining effortless passing power on the open road.

It all started with the original CBR900RR FireBlade 20 years ago. During two decades of continuous development and innovation since then, the Honda CBR1000RRA has always aimed for one goal: to make the rider feel completely connected with every aspect of the bike’s operation. Honda engineers call it Total Control, and for 2012 the CBR1000RRA takes this advanced design principle to a higher level than ever before.
