Even with a mere 12 litres, based purely on riding stance non-stop riding is on the cards. There is no denying that this motorcycle gives the rider a big bike touring centric motorcycle feel. However, I believe the rear suspension would need to be tuned to the riding style. The seat without a doubt complements this. The front suspension and the swaged & raised handle bars make the motorcycle the perfect blend for craters and bumps. Taking the motorcycle through Mumbai traffic for a non-Mumbaikar indeed is a piece of cake. Also, the Half fairing takes away the weight of the headlight console making the CB200X all the more maneuverable – be it traffic, trail, highways or for that matter any other riding condition. The height is perfect for motorcyclists of all builds to maneuver it in any situation. You can corner with as much agility that you saddle the bike on trails. The upright ride posture is indeed its core strength. The Honda CB200X had me hooked the moment I sat on it. The shades of grey are blended in well with the stand storm streak and matte plastics and other elements of the motorcycle. Here, the design language makes a style statement without being in your face. Neither is the Honda CB200X too bland nor is it a collage of sticker night gone wild. The seat comfort, handle bar and foot pegs make the perfect triangle. Rear view mirrors on the Honda CB200X needs no chicken dancing or peek a booing. The switch gear with a hazard light function built in is easy to operate. With a dash of matte finished tan complementing the golden USD this is a shade of grey I’d want. However, I somehow liked the Matte Selene Silver Metallic. The PEARL NIGHTSTAR BLACK too, is subtle yet composed. Certainly, the Sports Red is everyone’s favorite. In fact, the Honda CB200X comes with a belly cowl too. From the integrated LED indicators up front to the upswept exhaust it is difficult to point out what is out of place. The Honda CB200X is built of the best of breed DNA with the bloodlines and design cues of 3 of their own motorcycles.

It can be used by every motorcyclist, from novice to expert. The festival long of weekends beckons and thus we are posting this review a good 20 days late! The motorcycle is just not meant for the ones starting up. Thus, we have a quick shifter and a long hauler going throttle to wrist with the Honda CB200X Honda CB200X Review – Are we there yet?
