Honda DREAM Festa Grand Test Ride in HSR Kyushu!

Honda DREAM Festa Grand Test Ride
I went to HSR Kyushu on Sunday, May 28.

HDF-1

I went on a test ride of the vehicle I was looking for at this year's event.
(X-ADV, CBR250RR, CBR1000RR SP, REBLE500, CBR400R)
There are already quite a few people lined up for the morning reception.
After the reception, you will receive a 5-ticket packet (only up to 5 cars can be ridden).

HDF-2

Sponsors also set up booths, and the two-wheel parking lot is covered. Highs in the 30s.
I am trying to be a good person, so I appreciate it.

HDF-3

After applying for the car type you want, get in line for the car type you want.
You can get a glimpse of the level of popularity here.

HDF-4

It appears that nearly 70 vehicles have been brought in for this test drive.

HDF-5

First, I was most interested in X-ADV.

HDF-6

The lead cars were all CBR250RRs. Following the lead car, we entered the course.
One of the inexperienced in this group ended up driving at low speed.

HDF-7

Incidentally, the cockpit is finished in an adventurous manner.

HDF-8

Next is the just released CBR250RR.

HDF-9

The cockpit is racy, flying above the rest of the 250SS in Japan.
(The clip-ons under the top bridge are reminiscent of the ’80s and ’90s.)

HDF-10

The lead car of this group ran at a good speed there, which gave us a glimpse of its performance.

HDF-11

Next was the REBLE500, which I was interested in because I do not usually ride cruiser-type vehicles.

HDF-12

It's an easy position and easy to maneuver.
I guess one thing that bothered me was the interference with the left leg of the clutch cover.
Maybe I should just ride with my legs open like an American.

HDF-13

Next is the CBR1000RR SP, which is now out of my price range.
It is a very intriguing body.

HDF-14

The opening screen with the key ON is also very elaborate.

HDF-15

Now, straddle the seat and check the position. As expected of SP, the seat is high....

HDF-16

Those who choose CBR1000RR are used to riding.

HDF-17

As expected of a CBR1000RR lead car, it pulls quite well.

HDF-18

Finally, I rode a CBR400R. It is a paratwin 400cc, so the body is light.
It has power with no complaints for city driving, and the position is comfortable.

HDF-19

HDF-20

There is no peak power, but the handling is straightforward.

HDF-21

Even if you don't own a motorcycle, as long as you have a motorcycle license, you can take a test ride.
You can ride as much as you want (preferably in a large size, even better).
