INNOVATIONS
The Silver Wing. Comfortable. Stylish. Well built. In other words, it’s a Honda. A touring scooter? It’s not an oxymoron, it’s a Silver Wing. This scooter is built to travel with its full body and protective windscreen. Its comfortable wide seats and ample, on-board storage are just the ticket for adventurous riders. Add high mpg and Honda reliability and replace that second car with a Honda Silver Wing.

Bodywork and Windscreen
Wind-tunnel-developed fill-coverage bodywork and windscreen are both beautiful and functional. Protects rider and passenger from the elements while reducing wind noise.

Honda V-Matic Transmission
With the V-Matic Transmission, riding couldn’t be easier. Just start the engine, twist the gas and go. The V-Matic means no shifting, ever-not even into Neutral or Reverse. The V-Matic is a countinuously variable design, so you’ll never feel it lurch from one gear to another.

Anti-Lock Braking System
If one or both of the wheels approaches a locked condition, the ABS directly engages brake pistons to lower braking pressure as needed, and then reapplying it. ABS for scooters features a circulating-type modulator with a single motor-driven pump.

Combined Braking System
Front brake has three pistons, the rear brake has two pistons. Use the front-brake lever, and two of three front pistons are activated. Use the rear-brake lever, and both rear pistons and the remaining front brake piston are activated.
