2009 Honda DN-01

Additional Features

• Spacious rider footboards enhance riding comfort without compromising cornering performance.
• Low, polycarbonate windshield allows some air into the cockpit at lower speeds.
• Mass-centralized 4.0-gallon dual-compartment fuel tank with 0.8-gallon reserve.
• Low 27.2-inch seat height with wide passenger seat provides all-day riding comfort and allows rider to put both feet down at stops or when parking motorcycle.
• The DN-01's sleek, aerodynamic bodywork is functional and beautiful.
• Well-placed mirrors provide an excellent rear view.
• Widely spaced turn indicators are mounted on rearview mirrors for style and function.
• Dual-element headlights provide right-side low beam operation- just like Honda CBRs- while both beams illuminate in high-beam mode. A brilliant multi-segment LED taillight is integrated into the rear cowl.
• Handy one-touch, cable-actuated parking brake.
• White LED-backlit, LCD instrument panel provides multi-segment tachometer and large digital speedometer displays with dual-trip calculator, clock, six-segment fuel gauge, plus large turn signal and 'neutral' indicators.
• Detachable seat provides storage for a U-lock. (Lock not included.)

Chassis / Suspension

• Relaxed 28.5-degree rake and 4.5 inches of trail contribute to comfortable, stretched-out riding position and provide excellent straight-line handling.
• Handsome, lightweight 17-inch 5-spoke cast aluminum wheels with Z-rated 130/70 ZR17 (front) and 190/50 ZR17 (rear) radial tires offer sport-touring traction and comfort in wet and dry riding conditions.
• Sturdy double-cradle steel tube frame provides exceptional strength and bolt-on seat rail simplifies servicing.
• Stout 41 mm front fork with 4.2 inches of supple travel and progressive damping.
• Combined ABS (LBS-ABS) with two lightweight 296 mm floating front rotors and a single 276 mm rear rotor.
• Single shock, Pro Arm Rear Suspension.

Engine / Drivetrain

• Front-mounted radiator receives ducted air from fairing shroud to maximize cooling.
• ECU-controlled, closed-loop emission control system with oxygen sensor manage the air / fuel mixture and reduce exhaust emissions.
• Programmed Fuel Injection (PGM-FI) with twin 40 mm throttle bodies and high-performance 12-hole injectors provide excellent throttle response and fuel economy while contributing to low emissions.
• Compact 680 cc, liquid-cooled SOHC 52-degree V-Twin provides substantial torque and power for everyday commuting and spirited backroad riding.
• The ECU-controlled HFT automatically 'downshifts' when climbing steep grades to maintain optimum power.
• HFT offers two fully automatic, infinitely variable transmission modes - 'D' (Drive) mode for ordinary riding, and 'S' (Sport) mode for sharper acceleration. In addition, a push-button-selectable, six-speed manual mode allows the rider to upshift / downshift with the simple operation of left thumb-activated buttons.
• HFT features button-activated mechanical neutral, permitting engine revving when stopped. Mechanical neutral is automatically engaged whenever the engine is turned off, allowing easy maneuverability.
• 2-into-1 stainless steel exhaust system with chrome-plated triangular shaped tailpipe is designed to centralize mass for improved handling.
• Auto enrichment system is integrated into PGM-FI to optimize the air/fuel mixture on cold starts and eliminates the need for a choke.
• HFT provides 'lock-up' in cruising mode for maximum fuel economy.

Honda Genuine Accessories

• Rugged, full-coverage body cover.
• A custom-styled backrest for extra passenger comfort.

Unique Features

• Combined ABS (LBS-ABS) triple-disc brake system for sure-footed braking in varying conditions.
• Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS with CBS) utilizes modulators- one each on the front and rear wheels- driven directly by specially developed electric motors. In operation, an Electronic Control Unit (ECU) monitors wheel and vehicle speed. If one of both of the wheels approach a locking condition, the modulators, via a signal from the ECU, lower hydraulic pressure by acting directly on the brake piston(s). As wheel speed re-approaches motorcycle speed, the hydraulic pressure is increased. This entire process is repeated numerous times in just one second, resulting in optimal braking pressure and enhanced rider control.
• HFT transmission is a continuously variable, hydromechanical design that automatically and seamlessly changes drive ratios to produce strong, smooth acceleration. Unlike conventional belt-drive designs, HFT is compact, quiet, no scheduled maintenance, and features two automatic modes and a six-speed manual mode with push-button shifting.
• Large-diameter 41 mm front fork and single-shock Pro Arm® Rear Suspension provide a sporting ride on low-profile Z-rated radial tires.
• Beautiful aerodynamic design provides protection from the elements.
• Low 27.2-inch seat height assures flat-footed confidence when stopped.
• Combined Braking System (CBS) provides excellent braking power for added confidence in a wide range of operating conditions. CBS applies front braking force whenever the rear brake is operated. On the DN-01, equipped with dual front disc brakes with three-piston calipers and a twin-piston rear caliper, rider application of the front-brake lever activates all six brake pistons in the front calipers. Application of the rear-brake pedal activates the dual pistons of the rear caliper and the center piston of the front-left caliper.
• Powerful 4-valve, 680 cc liquid-cooled V-twin engine.
