In 2015, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Honda CB1300S Super Bol D'or, a half-faired version of the base CB1300 Super Four model, named after an annual French motorcycle endurance race that started in 1950.
The 2015 model featured a half-front fairing with a small tinted windscreen that improved wind protection and reduced pressure and a rectangular headlight instead of the round unit carried by the base model.
Also, the 2015 model featured an LED headlight, new bodywork, new lightweight die-cast aluminum wheels, and a six-speed manual transmission that made the bike a true sports tourer.
In addition, the model came with standard features, such as a dual seat with a passenger grab handle, a wide handlebar, a digital and analog instrument cluster, die-cast aluminum wheels, a black-finished steel tube frame, and a side stand.
For suspension, the bike packed a 43 mm cartridge-style telescopic fork on the front and twin shock absorbers with spring preload adjustability on the rear end that provided optimum suspension performance.
As for braking performance, it featured two 310 mm discs with four-piston calipers on the front wheel and a 256 mm disc with a single-piston caliper on the rear wheel that offered strong stopping power.
In the performance department, the 2015 Honda CB1300S Super Bol D'or took its thrust from a 1,284cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled engine that delivered an output power of 114 hp at 7,500 rpm and 117 Nm (86 lb-ft) of torque available at 6,000 rpm.
