Taking over the position of the Honda Wave Alpha, the Honda Blade motorcycle is currently the cheapest automatic motorcycle in the market from Honda, directly competing with the Yamaha Sirius.
So, with what it offers, does the 2020 Honda Blade satisfy users? Let's explore with Mytour and find the answer:
1. Review of the design of the 2020 Honda Blade motorcycle
Continuing the concise and sporty language, Honda's automatic motorcycle brings a range of options suitable for various user groups. With a bike weight of only 98kg and a seat height of 769mm, the Honda Blade is suitable for those with modest height.
The 2020 Honda Blade boasts a flexible front design with a wide turning angle, allowing users to maneuver even in tight and congested road conditions. However, the halogen headlight system still falls short in illumination, especially during long journeys without streetlights.
The layered seat on the Honda Blade provides comfort for both the rider and the passenger. However, due to its slightly firm nature, long rides might be a bit uncomfortable. The rear mudguard works effectively, and the exhaust pipe comes with a secure cover, ensuring safety while maintaining a sleek appearance.
The storage compartment is small but accommodates items like raincoats. However, the inconvenient placement of the compartment lock on the body of the bike can be troublesome, especially during refueling, whereas many other scooters have integrated locks into the main key system.
The instrument control system is logically arranged for easy observation in all conditions. The bike is also equipped with tires suitable for various road conditions. Additionally, your choice of the Honda Blade 2020 model may depend on your usage conditions. Specifically:
- If you frequently travel on dirt roads or mountainous terrain, consider the Honda Blade 2020 with flower-shaped rims for better stability under these conditions.
- If you mostly ride in urban conditions, the cast rim version will provide a more sporty and powerful look.
2. Engine Features and Performance Review of the 2020 Honda Blade Motorcycle
Honda equips the 2020 Blade with a 4-stroke, 1-cylinder, 109.1cc air-cooled engine. This engine generates a maximum power of 6.18 kW at 7500 rpm and a maximum torque of 8.65 Nm at 5500 rpm.
The transmission is a 4-speed rotary system, improved for shorter shifting. Shortening the shifting operation and reducing the weight of the gear lever provides the rider with a smooth and easy shifting experience.
In practical use, the Honda Blade demonstrates quick and responsive starts, smooth and light shifting, and good acceleration, earning high satisfaction from users.

In addition to its powerful engine and smooth transmission, the Honda Blade motorcycle also integrates a disc brake system for the front wheel and a drum brake for the rear wheel, ensuring safety for users during rides.
The key system on the 2020 Honda Blade features a 3-in-1 integrated mechanical lock, providing convenience during bike usage.
