The Interceptor® continues to serve as the epitome of sport-touring motorcycles, one that carries an extra emphasis on sport. Its potent V-4 VTEC® engine and excellent handling make this the long-range bike of choice for those who hunt out twisty backroads.New for 2009
New Black frame and wheels. New Black color. Unique FeaturesRevolutionary VTEC combines the power characteristics of both two- and four-valve cylinder-head designs. The engine runs on two valves per cylinder below 6400 rpm, then switches to four valves per cylinder to deliver significantly stronger low-end and mid-range torque while maintaining the Interceptor's impressive high-rpm power delivery. Unique Pro Arm® Rear Suspension (see Technology Section). Pro-Link® Rear Suspension (see Technology Section). Unique center-up exhaust system incorporates two stainless-steel mufflers tucked beneath the Interceptor's tail section. Large-diameter 43mm Honda Multi-Action System (HMAS) cartridge front fork provides enhanced handling under all riding conditions (see Technology Section). Combined Braking System (CBS) (see Technology Section).
Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) model available (see Technology Section). Four brilliant multireflector headlights employ two centrally positioned H4 low/high beams positioned under two widely spaced H7 high beams for brilliant nighttime illumination. Engine/DrivetrainCompact 781cc DOHC 90-degree V-4 with an oversquare bore and stroke of 72mm x 48mm. Silent-type cam-chain drive eliminates mechanical gear noise. The system features a set of dual tensioners that maintain optimal pressure and lubrication for the camshaft chains, ensuring quiet operation and long life. Programmed Fuel Injection (PGM-FI) (see Technology Section). Iridium-tip spark plugs are ignited by compact high-energy coil-on-plug spark plug caps that produce a strong, high-voltage spark. Interceptor engine serves as a stressed member of the pivotless frame, which features specially designed engine mounting bolts tuned to work in harmony with the damping characteristics of the frame. Aluminum-composite cylinder sleeves are high-pressure-formed from sintered-aluminum powder impregnated with ceramic and graphite. The composite sleeves provide better wear resistance and superior heat dissipation than conventional sleeves. Cast-aluminum pistons feature LUB-Coat solid lubricant to minimize friction between piston and cylinder wall. Auto-enriching system is integrated into PGM-FI module, which optimizes the air/fuel mixture on cold starts and eliminates the need for a manual choke. Solenoid-operated dual air-intake duct design keeps one duct closed during low-speed operation to ensure optimal control of air-intake velocity. Dual side-mounted radiators maximize cooling efficiency using low-air-pressure areas created by side cowls to draw cooling air through the radiators. During low-speed operation, a thermostat-controlled left-side fan pulls cooling air across the radiator into the fairing to keep hot air away from the rider.Rugged125mm-diameter eight-plate clutch offers light weight and high load capacity. Clutch features an offset outside friction plate for quiet operation when starting from a stop.
Exceptionally smooth-shifting six-speed transmission. Three-phase coil-spring damper in the transmission provides for seamless upshifts. Chassis/SuspensionTriple-box-section twin-spar aluminum frame features a tuned, pivotless design that isolates the engine-mounted swingarm from the frame and contributes to handling comfort. Unique Pro Arm Rear Suspension (see Technology Section). Pro-Link Rear Suspension (see Technology Section). Combined Braking System (CBS) (see Technology Section). The Interceptor's 296mm floating front-brake discs feature a lightweight seven-spoke inner rotor design. U-section cast-aluminum wheels are light and reduce unsprung weight. The six-spoke, 3.5-inch-wide front wheel carries a 120/70ZR-17 radial tire. The five-spoke, 5.5-inch rear wheel sports a wide, low-profile 180/55ZR-17 radial tire. Additional Features5.8-gallon fuel capacity for excellent sport-touring range. The Interceptor's sleek, aerodynamic bodywork is functional and beautiful. Satin-finish treatment on muffler covers and exhaust heat shield for distinctive styling. Stylish silver finish on clutch and brake master cylinders. Clear turn-signal lenses front and rear provide a high-tech look.
Air flowing through the windscreen's central air vent provides cool air to the rider at low speeds and increases rider comfort at higher speeds. High-tech instrument display includes electronic tachometer and LCD readouts for speedometer, air temperature, coolant temperature, odometer, two tripmeters and clock. ACG output of 497 watts. Detachable seat provides storage for a U-lock and other necessities. (Lock not included.) Removable passenger seat cowl. Adjustable brake and clutch levers. Injection-molded nylon passenger grabrails are comfortable to the touch in cold or hot weather. Folding aerodynamic mirrors. Transferable one-year, unlimited-mileage limited warranty; extended coverage available with a Honda Protection Plan
