    Honda develops “most fuel-efficient” engine

    Honda has announced the development of a new, 700cc engine that has achieved a 40% improvement in fuel-efficiency over other models in it’s class.

    The new engine is a liquid-cooled, 700cc, 4-stroke, in-line, 2-cylinder. Fuel economy has exceeded 27km/L,(l), by utilising higher-combustion efficiency and lower friction technologies including resin coating the pistons, an aluminium rocker arm, uneven-firing intervals and a branch intake port inside the cylinder head with only one intake channel for two cylinders.

    I wonder what style of bike they will put it in, and what the actual power will be like.

    I can't see it being put in a sports bike ... more likely a cruiser/tourer ... with a 500 km fuel range ...

    Actual power may not be highlighted (or mentioned) ... but torque will be ...
