The e-clutch works with a 6-speed transmission to transfer power to the rear wheel. Both motorcycles are equipped with a 5-inch full-color TFT display that features Bluetooth smartphone connectivity via the Honda RoadSync app, enabling users to access navigation, call notifications, and message alerts. The suspension systems for both bikes utilize Showa's 41mm SFF-BP inverted front forks and a rear mono-shock that has an adjustable preload. Regarding braking, Honda has equipped these motorcycles with twin disc brakes at the front and a single disc at the rear, along with a dual-channel ABS system.
