Key specifications
Overview
Introducing the 2015 Honda Express, a unique blend of practicality and playful performance, designed for urban riders and those who crave a convenient two-wheeled experience. Positioned as an allround motorcycle, the Express appeals to both novice riders looking to dip their toes into the world of motorcycling and seasoned enthusiasts seeking a lightweight, versatile option for short commutes or leisurely rides. With a price tag of approximately $2000, the Express packs a punch without breaking the bank, making it an attractive choice for those seeking value and reliability in a compact package. At the heart of the Honda Express lies a spirited 49.90cc, in-line four, two-stroke engine that delivers a modest yet delightful 1.30 horsepower at 3800 RPM. This powertrain translates into a top speed of 48.3 km/h (30 mph), making it perfect for zipping through city streets or navigating through crowded neighborhoods. The automatic gearbox ensures a hassle-free ride, allowing you to focus on the thrill of the journey rather than gear shifts. With a fuel consumption rate of just 1.81 litres per 100 km, or an impressive 129.96 mpg, this bike is not only fun to ride but also easy on your wallet when it comes to fuel costs. The 2015 Honda Express is thoughtfully designed with features that enhance both comfort and usability. Its lightweight frame, tipping the scales at a mere 29.0 kg (64 pounds), allows for effortless handling, while the telescopic front fork and rear shock absorber ensure a smooth ride over uneven surfaces. The drum brakes, with a diameter of 89 mm on both the front and rear, provide reliable stopping power. One of the standout features of the Express is its foldable design—when not in use, it can be compacted to less than 5 cubic feet, making it incredibly easy to store or transport with the optional carrying bag. Available in a range of vibrant colors including red, yellow, blue, black, white, and green, the Express not only performs well but does so with style. **
