Honda has unveiled the much hyped ‘Crossrunner 800’ – an adventure sports bike made for tarmac. The Crossrunner uses a 800cc engine which is evolved from the yesteryear’s VFR 800. Honda says that the Crossrunner combines the best bits of a street bike (straight/upright handle bars, single/long seat) and an adventure bike (high rise fenders) without the high seating or bouncy suspension of an all-out adventure bike. Instead this machine uses more urban dynamics and the 800cc engine’s VTEC system as been reworked for smoother power delivery and no sudden surge that one used to get from the VFR800 at 6,000rpm.
