#HONDA AUTOMATIC MOTORCYCLES MANUAL#
Basically, the cool thing about this Aprilia is the fact that it is an automatic motorcycle with a proper manual setting attached.
You can Google the difference yourself, because it’s a big deal (apparently). It uses Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) instead. The Aprilia Mana doesn’t rely on a regular dual clutch transmission system. We have the “C” for “Comfort,” the “T” for “Technology,” and the “X” for “eXperience.” Here’s what it’s designer, Masanori Aoki, had to say about it:įor the sake of breaking up the Honda show, we’ve got an Aprilia for you. In fact it’s even called the CTX for that exact reason. It’s probably the most relaxed tourer on the market, offering a fully automatic ride with all the comforts that you’d expect from a Honda-built touring machine. However, this one adds more variety to the list, so we’re picturing that instead. Before we continue, it’s worth mentioning that this very same motorcycle is available without the touring-style fairings. Up next, we’ve got Honda’s more tourer shaped automatic model: the CTX700. As far as learner bikes go, it’s probably not a bad choice considering that once you’ve mastered the automatic version, you’ll be familiar with the fully manual version which has the same layout save for a clutch and gear shifter. Overall, the bike is agile, stable, has a low center of gravity, and comes with enough mod-cons to keep things interesting. Or at the very least, one worth trying before you judge it too harshly. It’s a different ball game, but one worth playing. And there’s engine braking downward gear shifting on a conventional motorcycle allows for more controlled braking, which is lost with an automatic transmission. Some of these new bikes keep a conventional foot brake for the rear, but most have the rear brake on the handlebar where the clutch should be, just like a bicycle. Firstly, your braking is going to be different. Thanks to the automatic transmission, there’s no need to work through gears or adjust gear to match the scenario, it’s as simple as “twist if you want to go faster.” There are certain nuances to riding motorcycles with automatic transmissions though. Since power is delivered directly through an electric motor, all you have to do is twist the throttle and go. Motorcycles with automatic transmissions come in a variety of flavors but for the most part they are as simple to operate as you would imagine.
