Honda CB Trigger Unveiled: Details & Specification

From its headlights and body shape it is clear that the CB Trigger gains some its its design features from Honda CB1000R. Honda CB Trigger is a street bike well suited for congested Indian roads and with its stylish and bold design it will appeal more to the young crowd. The bike is powered by a four stroke 149cc, single cylinder, air cooled engine that is coupled to a standard 5 speed gearbox. Maximum power developed is 13.81 BHP at 8500 rpm, while peak torque is 1.28 kgm or 12.5 Nm, which comes in at 6500 rpm. Estimated average mileage is 60 kmpl.

Honda CD Trigger provides a number of premium features such as the first in the segment Combi Brake System (CBS), that helps reduce stopping distance by 32 percent. The discs on the front measures 240mm and on the rear 200mm (Drum brakes on the rear for the standard variant). Like the Honda Unicorn, CB Trigger comes with rear monoshock and tubeless tyres. The front unit measures 80/100 x 17 and rear 110/80 x 17.

Premium bikes in this category get judged by how modern and stylish they look and this Honda has managed by giving the bike a fully digital instrument panel. The bike's amber backlit console provides digital readouts on its speedometer, odometer, fuel level indicator and cascading tachometer. Furthermore, there is even a digital clock.

Other notable features include an upright seating position, 6-spoke alloy wheels, wide seats and the pseudo dual air intake scoops below the tank, which gives it an aggressive and sporty look.

Available colours will be Black, Meteor Green and Siena Red. Honda CB Trigger will be sold alongside the Unicorn and will be available from May 2013. Pricing will only be revealed by the end of April.
