Chassis/Suspension:

• Massive square-tube mono-backbone steel frame utilizes the engine as a stressed frame member. Together with the reinforced steering head, the chassis provides an optimal balance of rigidity and tuned flex for superb handling.
• A single box-section downtube reaches to a unique front engine mount that incorporates a cross member to link the frame to the engine's solid front mounts.
• Lightweight aluminum swingarm features a large one-piece cast pivot block and extruded triple-box-section spars.
• 43 mm cartridge front fork with adjustable preload with compression damping and 4.3-inches of travel offers unparalleled rigidity for precise action and excellent handling on a variety of road surfaces.
• Lightweight aluminum upper triple-clamp adds rigidity for even better steering control.
• Single-shock rear suspension features a high-quality damper with 7-position-adjustable spring preload, 5-inches of plush wheel travel and a remote fluid reservoir for added suspension control in all riding conditions.
• Braking system features two huge 296 mm front discs with four-piston calipers and a 240 mm rear disc with a 1-piston caliper for exceptional stopping power.
• Super-light hollow, aluminum-alloy three-spoke wheels with 3.5 x 17-inch front and 5.5 x 17-inch rear dimensions.

Engine/Drivetrain:

• Compact 919 cc DOHC liquid-cooled inline 4-cylinder engine is tuned for low-end and mid-range power for spirited acceleration.
• One-piece upper crankcase/cylinder assembly, right-side cam-drive design and a narrow 32-degree included valve angle help make the 919 engine the lightest, most compact powerplant in its class.
• The 16-valve cylinder head with a 10.8:1 compression ratio promotes efficient combustion and high horsepower production.
• Direct shim-under-bucket valve actuation system is compact, ensures high-rpm durability and allows 16,000-mile valve maintenance intervals.
• High-pressure PGM-FI delivers fuel at 50 psi to four injectors, each mounted in a 36 mm throttle body. Fuel is delivered through four nozzle holes in each injector, producing a highly atomized air/fuel charge for maximum combustion efficiency and power.
• Advanced PGM-FI features a sophisticated throttle sensor and advanced fuel-injection mapping to produce smooth and linear throttle response, responding precisely to fine throttle adjustments.
• A 16-bit electronic control unit (ECU) provides two digital 3-D fuel-injection maps for each cylinder and one digital 3-D ignition map for cylinder pairs, creating ideal fuel mixture and spark advance settings for superb rideability.
• Liquid-cooled oil cooler and a lightweight aluminum radiator keep engine temperatures in check for consistent performance and long engine life.
• Spring-loaded scissors-type gear on the drive side of the crankshaft and a rubber-mounted, floating clutch cover help reduce noise.
• Weight-saving features include a compact, lightweight one-piece alternator.
• Unique 4-into-2-into-1-into-2 exhaust design features expanding-diameter tubing leading into the two center-up mufflers, contributing to strong mid-range torque and an exhilarating exhaust note. Stainless-steel exhaust header and main pipe are attractive and corrosion-resistant. Polished stainless-steel muffler covers shield passenger's legs from muffler heat.
• High-capacity 380-watt AC generator.
• Maintenance-free automatic cam-chain tensioner.
• Smooth-shifting 6-speed transmission with gear ratios carefully matched to the engine's powerband.
• Durable #530 O-ring-sealed drive chain.

• A feathery 428-pound dry weight makes the 919 the lightest bike in its class.
• The comfortable, upright seating position is ideal for commuting, sport riding and long trips.
• Honda's latest programmed fuel injection (PGM-FI) and electronic digital ignition maximize power output and offer immediate throttle response.
• Stylish, dual, center-up exhaust exits below the rear cowl.
• Massive square-tube mono-backbone frame and a large aluminum swingarm combine to provide an ideal balance of rigidity and flexibility for superb road feel.
• 43 mm adjustable cartridge front fork, single-shock rear suspension and lightweight cast aluminum three-spoke wheels contribute to exceptional handling.
