Key specifications
Overview
Introducing the 2004 Honda Reflex ABS, a standout in the scooter category that masterfully combines practicality and performance for urban commuting and leisurely rides alike. Priced at an appealing US$ 5699, this model captures the essence of Honda's commitment to quality, reliability, and innovative technology. The Reflex ABS, with its sleek design and refined engineering, is tailored for riders seeking a nimble, efficient, and stylish option to navigate through city streets or enjoy weekend getaways. At the heart of the Reflex ABS lies a robust 249cc single-cylinder, four-stroke engine that delivers a well-balanced blend of power and efficiency. With a compression ratio of 10.5:1 and a liquid-cooling system, this engine is designed for smooth acceleration and responsive handling. Paired with an automatic gearbox and a final belt drive, the Reflex provides effortless gear transitions, allowing riders to focus on the joy of the ride without the fuss of manual shifting. The chassis features a hydraulic front fork and a single-side swingarm with dual hydraulic shocks, ensuring that the scooter absorbs bumps and imperfections on the road, offering a smooth and comfortable ride even on longer journeys. The 2004 Honda Reflex ABS is not just about performance; it's packed with features that enhance the overall riding experience. The ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) provides added safety, particularly in wet or slippery conditions, while the 12.11-liter fuel tank allows for extended rides between fill-ups. The scooter's low seat height of 719 mm (28.3 inches) makes it accessible to a wide range of riders, and its stylish color options—classic Black and vibrant Red—appeal to those looking to express their individuality. With a thoughtfully designed suspension system that offers a rear travel of 119 mm (4.7 inches), the Reflex ABS stands out as a versatile choice for both new and seasoned riders. **
