Overview

Introducing the 2014 Honda Faze ABS, a standout in the scooter category that perfectly blends practicality with performance. Designed for urban commuting and short trips, this scooter offers a stylish and functional solution for those who crave freedom on two wheels without the bulk of a traditional motorcycle. With its modern aesthetics and thoughtful engineering, the Faze is crafted for riders who appreciate both form and function, making it an ideal choice for city dwellers and scooter enthusiasts alike. At the heart of the Faze ABS lies a robust 248cc single-cylinder, four-stroke engine that delivers a respectable 23 horsepower at 7500 RPM. This powerplant, paired with an automatic gearbox, ensures a smooth and hassle-free riding experience, perfect for navigating through bustling streets. The torque of 23 Nm at 6000 RPM provides ample acceleration, making it easy to dart between traffic and conquer inclines with confidence. With a liquid cooling system and a compression ratio of 10.2:1, the Faze maintains efficiency while keeping engine temperatures in check, allowing riders to enjoy longer journeys without overheating concerns. However, it’s worth noting that the fuel consumption rate of 60 liters per 100 km (or 3.92 mpg) may be less than ideal for those looking for maximum efficiency. The 2014 Honda Faze ABS is equipped with a variety of features that enhance both safety and comfort. Its underbone frame contributes to a lightweight and agile feel, making it easy to maneuver in tight spaces. The advanced ABS braking system on both the front and rear discs provides reliable stopping power while enhancing rider confidence in various weather conditions. The telescopic front suspension and unit swing rear suspension work in harmony to smooth out bumps in the road, providing a comfortable ride, even on uneven surfaces. With a seat height of 755 mm (29.7 inches), it’s accessible for riders of various heights, making it a versatile choice for a wide range of users. **

Pros

  • User-Friendly Handling: The lightweight design and automatic transmission make the Faze exceptionally easy to handle, ideal for new riders and city commuting.
  • Safety Features: Equipped with ABS on both front and rear brakes, providing enhanced stopping power and safety in wet conditions.
  • Comfortable Riding Position: The well-designed seating and suspension allow for a relaxed riding posture, perfect for longer rides around town.

Cons

  • Fuel Efficiency: With a fuel consumption rate of 60 liters per 100 km, the Faze may not be the most economical choice for those prioritizing fuel savings.
  • Limited Power for Highway Use: While sufficient for city riding, the engine may lack the punch required for sustained highway speeds or aggressive overtaking.
  • Storage Space: Being a scooter, the storage options may be limited compared to traditional motorcycles, which could be a concern for riders who need to carry more gear.
