HONDA CB4 INTERCEPTOR NEO-SPORTS CAFÉ FIGHTER

AN EVOLUTION OF THE NEO SPORTS CAFÉ:

This is the stunning Honda CB4 Interceptor neo-sports café concept, revealed at EICMA on Wednesday 8th November — which appears to be based on a CB1000R engine. The bike was created to give Honda designers the opportunity delve into the realm possibilities — to showcase future tech and the design evolution of the café racer genre.
In Honda’s more succinct words,

“…combining elegance and sportiness while leaving room for a futuristic technology integrated into the flowing design lines…”

Looking in-between LED ring-headlight, you’ll see what you think is a fan and you’re correct.

Honda engineers have created a system which uses residual kinetic energy from the motorcycle to power a tank-located, black touch-screen. That screen, in-turn offers the rider device connectivity, map information and other essential services.

CB4 Streetfighter Concept Evolution

This neo-sports café concept, is actually a progression of the earlier CB4 Streetfighter concept — which some of you may remember was revealed at the EICMA show in 2015.

Apart from the obvious difference in bike genre, both the CB4 Streetfighter and CB4 Interceptor share a muscular form — though the latter is more toned than muscular. The “total black” colour scheme, under-seat exhaust, low bars and race slicks, give it a mean and assertive look. That meanness is offset by the super-minimalist lines of the half fairing, with a futuristic contrast, luminous yellow, screen.

The finished result is a rather cultured café fighter machine. And one which we’d hope to see on the streets, though that remains to be seen.
