"Honda unveils the prototype of its naked motorcycle, the V3R 900 E-Compressor, with a design that exposes the engine around the camouflage-wrapped frame. Revealed at the motorcycle exhibition EICMA 2025 in Milan, Italy, which runs between November 6th and 9th, the vehicle comes with asymmetrical side panels and fairing, the structure that helps reduce drag, for airflow and heat dissipation. Around them, the engine, frame, and suspension parts visibly come into view. The fuel tank and seat structure are shaped to fit the rider's posture."
"The ride's chassis is built to support the refreshed engine layout, with the frame materials likely including a mix of steel and aluminum for strength and reduced weight. The suspension setup is designed for both performance and stability, using a front fork and a rear mono-shock absorber, while the brakes are expected to feature disc systems on both wheels. The main feature of the naked motorcycle prototype by Honda is its 900cc water-cooled, 75-degree V3 engine."
Honda revealed a prototype naked motorcycle, the V3R 900 E-Compressor, at EICMA 2025 in Milan. The bike features asymmetrical side panels and fairing covered in a red, black and gray triangular camouflage that exposes engine, frame, and suspension components. The fuel tank has angular surfaces and the seat and wide straight handlebars position the rider for a forward-leaning, sport-street compromise. The chassis likely mixes steel and aluminum for strength and lightness, with a front fork, rear mono-shock and expected disc brakes. The centerpiece is a 900cc water-cooled, 75-degree V3 engine that reduces size and balances weight while aiding cooling. The fuel tank bears the new Honda Flagship WING emblem.
