Celebrating its 70th anniversary, Montesa, Honda‘s Spanish subsidiary, has introduced the all-new dual sport model called the 4Ride. The 4Ride is Montesa’s first non-trials model since the 1991 Montesa Evasion. The new off-road street-Legal trial bike is scheduled to arrive at European dealerships in February 2016, with a price estimated at around $8,050 (€7,500).
Like the Montesa Cota 4RT260 trials bike, the 2016 Montesa 4Ride is powered by the same 259cc liquid-cooled Single engine, mated to a 5-speed transmission, and has an identical frame to the 4RT260’s but offers a compact underseat compartment that can store a light jacket and gloves.
The 2016 Montesa 4Ride has longer forks, with the entire suspension is multi-adjustable. It boasts a fuel tank that holds 1.2 gallons (4.4 liters), and is enough to offer a range of about 75 miles (120 km).
