Engine/Drivetrain
• Liquid-cooled horizontally-opposed fuel-injected 1832cc six-cylinder engine
provides the ultimate in hot-rod style and performance.
• Six 32mm synchronized throttle bodies deliver air to six specially designed
Denso(r) 12-hole programmed fuel injectors, producing an atomized fuel mixture
that is highly combustible for optimum efficiency and power.
• Parallel two-valve cylinder head design utilizes direct shim-under-bucket
valve actuation and requires no 600-mile service. First valve clearance
inspection is at 32,000 miles.
• 6.9-liter airbox supplies a large volume of cool, clean air to the engine
for maximum performance.
• Rigid-mount engine designed to accent the impressive looks and feel of the
unrivaled, largest-displacement F6 engine.
• Chrome cylinder head covers give a unique muscle-car image.
• Two front mounted radiators with chrome cover provide optimum cooling
efficiency for increased engine performance and the ultimate in hot-rod style.
• Rotary Air Control Valve(tm) (RACV) provides auto-choke function and
maintains precise idle control under widely varying engine loads and operating
temperatures.
• Six-into-two exhaust system for the ultimate in hot-rod appearance and
sound.
• Maintenance-free hydraulic clutch, electronic ignition, chain-driven
camshafts and shaft drive reduce servicing time and cost.
• Powerful, 1100-watt alternator offers plenty of power for electrical
accessories.
• Quiet and virtually maintenance-free shaft-drive.
• Smooth shifting five-speed transmission.
Chassis/Suspension
• Unique aluminum diamond-shape frame has a style all its own, and features
the longest wheelbase in Honda's lineup at 68.9 inches.
• Trailing bottom-link front suspension transfers axle load through pushrods
and linkage to two upper shocks-one housing the main spring and one a sub-spring
and damping system. This unique suspension system offers 3.9 inches of compliant
travel and superior stability.
• New Unit Pro-Link rear suspension is patterned after RC211V GP racer's. The
upper shock mount is contained within the swingarm rather than the frame. With
no top frame-mount for the shock, this unique system eliminates negative
suspension energy from being transmitted into the frame, allowing optimum frame
rigidity and better handling in corners. The Unit Pro-Link design also permits a
low seat height of 27.2 inches, and 3.9 inches of wheel travel.
• Dual 330mm front and single rear 336mm disc brakes are the largest used on
any production Honda.
• The Rune's Linked Brake System (LBS(tm)) features two three-piston front
calipers and a single two-piston rear caliper. Rider application of the front
brake lever activates the two outer pistons of the front calipers. Application
of the rear brake pedal activates the two pistons of the rear caliper and the
center pistons of the front calipers. When only the rear brake pedal is used, a
PCV valve controls hydraulic pressure and smooths application of the front
calipers' center pistons.
• Large, comfortable gunfighter-style seat.
* • Exclusive model features chrome plated wheels for ultimate custom
appearance.
• Deluxe model features silver painted wheels for custom look.
• Large-section radial tires-a 180/55R-17 rear and 150/60R-18 front-provide
superb grip and an excellent ride.
Additional Features
• Remote steering lock system is activated by pulling a lever on left side of
motorcycle. With key in Off position and handlebars in full-lock-left position,
a piston is inserted into the steering stem. System is automatically unlocked
when key is turned to On position.
* • Chrome plated clutch master cylinder, front brake master cylinder and
lever.
* • Stainless steel mesh throttle cable adds to custom look.
* • Stainless steel mesh brake hose.
* • Seamless 6.2-gallon fuel tank for genuine custom look.
• Distinctive chrome headlight features two 55-watt H7 bulbs. In low-beam
operation, the upper bulb is on, select high beam and both bulbs are on for
maximum illumination.
• Digital tank-mounted instruments are recessed, and feature a non-glare
digital readout for speedometer, fuel gauge, tripmeter and odometer.
• Two handlebar options to choose from: one for taller riders, with slightly
more reach, and one for medium-height riders.
• Handlebar-mounted indicator lights for oil level, fuel injection, high beam,
turn signal, neutral, oil temperature and locking system.
* • LED taillights are mounted flush in the rear fender for a Neo-Classic
look.
• Low, 27.2-inch seat height adds to long and low custom look.
• Convenient push-to-cancel turn-signal switch.
