Honda exhibits world premiere of new concept model motorcycle BULLDOG

Honda today unveiled the world premiere of new concept model the BULLDOG, at the 31st Osaka Motorcycle Show 2015. The BULLDOG’s 15-inch wide-tires and low center-of-gravity realize a low, 730mm seat height, ensuring a solid footing. Its unique robust, yet charming styling undoubtedly brings smiles to the faces of not only riders, but people who don’t usually ride motorcycles.

The BULLDOG promotes a new world of leisure with motorcycles. The model was developed with the concept Lovable Touring Partner, and is designed to go beyond the boundaries of conventional leisure motorcycles, to actively enjoy outdoor life. The liquid-cooled 4-stroke DOHC inline 2-cylinder 400cc engine has powerful, yet easy to handle output characteristics, realizing a nimble ride in a wide range of environments from urban to rural areas.
The BULLDOG is equipped with a carrier suitable for camping-touring, and features accessory storage on the sides of the fuel tank, which also act as a styling accent. The BULLDOG, a playful, next-era concept model, will be exhibited at 42nd Tokyo Motorcycle Show from Friday, March 27 to Sunday, March 29 at Tokyo Big Sight.
