Honda Griffon Scooter

Jul 26, 2011

At the Tokyo Motor show, Honda showed a 750 scooter-styled motorcycle with a retractable roof which it dubbed the Elysium and went to great pains to point out that the bike was purely a concept machine. Significantly, it was powered by a 750 Liquid-cooled flat-4 with power delivered by a CVT – a constantly variable transmission. The bike which Honda showed at this year’s Tokyo show seems directly related to the Elysium in that the 750 engine, CVT and much of the basic layout were used as a base, but the retractable roof was gone and the running gear has been redesigned.At the heart of the Griffon beats a horizontally opposed 4-cylinder 750cc power unit equipped with an automatic transmission and the next generation VTEC. This sophisticated power unit gives a low center of gravity and offers superior space utilisation.
