Custom Parts:
The majority of the chassis custom parts on the race-Superbike (footrests, handlebars, foot pegs, triple clamps etc) are all designed and manufactured in-house at Honda Racing UK’s machine shop. Having this feature means the team can quickly and effectively make changes after tests/races to meet rider requests.

New for 2024:

Frame: Geometrically the chassis is the same as the previous model, however, the aluminium frame features a new rigidity balance for enhanced steering accuracy and improved turning. 

Engine: Camshaft and crankshaft specifications have changed, increasing acceleration and improving engine braking. 

Aerodynamics: MotoGP-derived wings generate downforce, increasing front tyre grip on corner exit, enabling the rider to accelerate harder. It also enables a greater top speed as the bike is more aerodynamically efficient at high speed. 

2-Motor Throttle by Wire: The addition of 2-Motor Throttle By Wire (TBW) increases part-throttle control and allows amplified engine braking.
