A few car manufacturers have made models with CVT boxes over the years, i think DAF was the first, but they were riddled with problems, related to belt slippage and the requirement for very frequent maintainance and such things. I think i read that Audi have made a CVT system which eliminates belts so maybe things are improving, Even so, i suspect that Honda bike wouldn't be good for much more than race runs, wouldn't go for long without maintenance i bet. Did anyone read about the technicalities of the Honda box? Is it belt/roller or some sort of expanding sprocket and chain? -- Mark |
