HONDA CB92 (1961-1962) Specs, Performance & Photos

In 1962, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer released the Honda CB92, a motorcycle powered by a parallel-twin engine with design cues from the larger-displacement Honda C71, C76, C72, and C77 Dream series of motorcycles.

The CB92 skeleton was made of a pressed-steel frame with a fully welded design carrying on the front end the steering head with the pressed-steel leading link type suspension fitted with a mudguard and a pair of fully enclosed shock absorbers.

In the braking department, the stopping power was achieved by a drum unit mounted on the front wheel and another drum unit mounted on the rear wheel.

Also, the bike came equipped from the factory with a small windscreen, wide handlebars, a chromed exhaust system, a one-piece dual seat, and a center stand.

In the power department, the Honda CB92 had its soul brought to life by a 124cc four-stroke twin-cylinder air-cooled engine that delivered an output power of 12 hp with maximum strength at 10,500 rpm and 10 Nm (7 lb-ft) of torque available at 8,200 rpm.

The power generated by the powerplant was converted into speed and sent to the rear wheel through a four-speed manual transmission and a chain final drive that propelled the model to an estimated top speed of 120 kph (75 mph).
