Overview of Honda Unicorn motorcycle

 In fact, this is a Honda CBF150M adapted for India, immediately assembled, sold under the Unicorn name. Development and main details, as I understand it, are Honda's. Some of the components are third-party Indian - front brake disc, wheel bearings. The mileage of the CPG before the first repair, as I was told at the service center, should be about 75,000 km. This is very good, many Indian motorcycles have 10,000 km, which is just ridiculous.



My impressions after 1000 km of run:

Technical. During this time, I only tightened and lubricated the chain. No more problems.

Power and speed. The dynamics are enough to overtake the rest of the motorcyclists - a more powerful engine + the locals do not have the habit of unscrewing the throttle. On the track, I go faster than everyone else, with the exception of the Enfield. 80 km / h is a comfortable cruising on a good road (but this does not happen often, as a rule, it is impossible to drive more than 60 km / h due to the crazy local traffic).

The maximum clocked up to 95, if you bend over and wait, it will pick up a hundred.

The box is clear, neutral is even very clear. The fourth and fifth gears may not stick in place. In order to drop the gear from fifth to neutral while standing still with the engine running, it may be necessary to release the clutch slightly if the next gear is not stuck down.

Suspension. Tough. Compared to a thoroughbred Japanese, it works, but there is no talk of comfort. Good compared to local varieties. But 500 meters about a road paved with a large stone convinced me that this is not a suspension. Alas. Although again, with what to compare. Brakes. Front disc. The effort on the handle is noticeable, it will not work to brake with one or two fingers. But it works fine. Rear drum. After fine adjustment, it became possible to brake. But generally weak and not at all informative.


Comfort. The landing is very comfortable for me. The seat is uncomfortable, my ass after 60 km howled and begged at least for the Ural "loaf". Vibration on the footpegs on the track is palpable (6000 rpm at maximum power at 8000 and red zone at 9000), but tolerable. Quiet thanks to the huge muffler. The light is so-so, but it gets a little better if you turn on the near and far at the same time - the generator is enough for this.

There is little traction at the bottom, which complicates ramps, steep sections and off-road driving. Large gap between first and second gear. Yes, I didn't think about that when I bought it. A small gap between the front wheel and its wing - pebbles and branches regularly knock on the wing. I don’t know what will happen to the big beautiful when it falls to the right side. Plastic mount cracked over the next thousand km
