2012 Honda Cross Runner represents the best aspects of two distinct genera cycling: flexible attitude and a thrilling performance machine naked in a upright riding position and rugged looks of a motorcycle adventure.
The Crossrunner is a radically new concept that provides all day comfort and easy handling in the city, exhilarating performance on the road and the ground clearance and travel necessary to actually carry out the adventurer in you. 782cc V4 engine delivers the power to Crossrunner incredibly soft. V4 Honda engineers redesigned its renowned technology specifically for this bike for a great power is combined smoothly with the energy of a biking adventure. Wide handlebars and upright have joined to provide a high level of stability and maneuverability, as well as all-day comfort and visibility. The double-layer fascia completes the picture for a strong purpose and benefits of driving dynamics for enhanced stability at high speeds. The Crossrunner was created to provide a flexible bridges.

| 2012 Honda Crossrunner VFR800X |
Designed with the traveler in mind, the passenger seating positions in the same level as the pilot, the protection from wind and create a sense of comfort and safety. With great handling and stability, a good race suspension and ground clearance example, you can take the bumpiest paved roads and dirt roads to reach their destination.
With its 800cc V4 engine on the runner provides an exciting driving experience, whether for short urban trips, or to cover large distances.
Extensive customer research indicated that customers liked everything about the look and feel of the adventure of motorcycle in a stable commitment caused by the long travel suspension, tall seat and wheels was a dual purpose serious obstacle. The Crossrunner offers the best of both worlds, grappling with these requirements.
Development of the concept
Stability and flattering Easy rider had two main motivations for the project design of long-distance runner. He was always at the forefront of the design team that this bike should be performance based, yet extremely easy to meet a broad set of skills.
Runner Cross, smooth, supple and soulful 782cc V4 engine is specific for a horse suitable for this purpose cross-machine. Elastic, turbine type of power delivery and a smooth easy to make a very easy to find without a pilot effort, the rhythm flowing - an attribute always appreciated the passenger.
STYLE
The European design team has designed a bike that reflects the riding in this new decade.
The Crossrunner should be exciting to drive, but also easy to master, and the style of the machine to reflect these attributes are multidisciplinary.
Crucial machine data is provided by a cockpit instrument "floating", positioned high for maximum visibility at all times.
The sophisticated design of bicycle handlebars is reinforced by the high and wide.
ENGINE
782cc liquid-cooled, four cameras, 90 ° V4 engine offers smooth power curve with an excellent torque at any engine speed.
Features of the Honda V4 engine tested are legendary. Together with a known engine attractive, distinctive architecture, this engine provides the power curve, excellent torque from idle to the rev limit.
To provide both an optimum torque at low speed and peak power, a highly developed version of Honda's revolutionary VTEC system is specially adapted. This technology offers variable valve timing to optimize the degree of opening of the valve - a unique proposition in the motorcycle market.
Crossrunner engineers worked to refine these characteristics. Linearity of throttle control - a sense of greater driver control - is an early design goal and an important part of the development time is important Crossrunner.
The net result is a steady stream of progressive, linear power with plenty of torque throughout the rev range and precise control of each parameter of speed, throttle position, position, speed and load.
To achieve this goal the engineers with experience in several different forms of entry and length of the trumpet, before the optimum settings are obtained.
The 782cc, quad-cam, 90 degree V4 works over a square bore and stroke of 72.0 x 48.0mm for efficient cylinder filling through the valve four, the heads of cold air cylinder. The cooling unit water supplies power to the rear wheel via a six-speed gearbox, wet clutch and chain final drive.
An additional advantage by maximizing the progressive nature of the curves of torque and power are effective nutrients, resulting in a 348 km range from the fuel tank of 21.5 liters.
CHASSIS
Adaptable to the engine needs to start, and Runner Cross offers this with the aluminum alloy shown, the Twin Spar chassis, which offers excellent rigidity when the rider needs more.
This is the sport bike chassis technology is part of the Cross Runner, a single cross-over proposal.
The design allows an overload of return much lower than traditional adventure bikes, resulting in a much better level of rigidity.
BRAKES
With ABS as standard, triple-disc brake setup Crossrunner is not only powerful but also safe. Dual 296 mm floating discs are determined by three-piston front, while the rear disc brake 256 mm adopts a dual-piston caliper for precise control.
Extensive report development work with the cylinder-piston-piston master relationships were satisfied with the pilot feels much the optimum level of braking, steering feedback and a high aspect pilot.
