Secondly, the company has indeed revealed a self-balancing concept bike\u2026 <em>back in 2017<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>The concept bike was created to showcase Honda\u2019s Riding Assist tech, which <span>reduces the possibility of falling over while the motorcycle is at rest.

But the more I look at them, the more I can notice a similar design language \u2014 although the 2021 vehicle seems smoothed out and more \u201cmuscular.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"c-message_kit__gutter\">\n<div class=\"c-message_kit__gutter__right\" role=\"presentation\" data-qa=\"message_content\">\n<div class=\"c-message_kit__blocks c-message_kit__blocks--rich_text\">\n<div class=\"c-message__message_blocks c-message__message_blocks--rich_text\">\n<div class=\"p-block_kit_renderer\" data-qa=\"block-kit-renderer\">\n<div class=\"p-block_kit_renderer__block_wrapper p-block_kit_renderer__block_wrapper--first\">\n<div class=\"p-rich_text_block\" dir=\"auto\">\n<div class=\"p-rich_text_section\">But then again, even though I squinted as hard as I could, I was unable to read the logo on the 2021 motorcycle\u2019s side \u2014 if your eye-squinting technique is any better and you can read it, please email me.<\/p>\n<p>Plus, its self-balancing mechanism seems to be significantly upgraded or\u2026 totally different compared to the concept.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>All in all, it\u2019s difficult to say if Honda is reviving its 2017 concept motorbike and heading towards actual production.<\/p>\n<p>In any case, I find the self-balancing bike showcased in the video utterly cool. It\u2019s perfect for newbies like me who struggle to keep steady a 200kg monster at a stop sign or during a low-speed maneuver.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async defer src=\"https:\/\/platform.instagram.com\/en_US\/embeds.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
