Four-cylinder, overhead camshaft, five gears, front disc brake, that were rather attributes of racing machines previously than in large-scale production. The electric starter was added. In USA one also have celebrated the incredible price of nearly 1,500 dollars, whereby the first series has been sold out there.

No one knew at the time that it would go even further with the changes in this way, motorcycles would be offered down to 350 cc as four-cylinder and even transversely-mounted in-line six-cylinder engines. The originally from a Honda race car derived engine was then also the highlight.
