The Honda BULLDOG concept has just been unveiled at the 2015 Osaka Motorcycle Show. Billed as a rider-friendly study on two wheels, the concept adheres to the theme of what Honda calls the “Lovable Touring Partner” – you have to love the Japanese!
Powering the motorcycle is a 400 cc liquid-cooled, four-stroke DOHC two-cylinder engine – mated to a six-speed transmission – that’s been tuned to deliver an “easy to handle” power delivery. In staying true to its easy-going nature, the Honda BULLDOG concept rides on 15-inch wheels, front and rear, and its 730 mm seat height ensures a low, stable centre of gravity.
Storage compartments are aplenty with the inclusion of a carrier compartment for “camping-touring” while additional cargo capacity comes courtesy of an “accessory storage” space on either sides of the fuel tank. Styling wise, the motorcycle features simple yet charming cues such as the twin circular head lamps while the body itself possesses a stumpy, grounded stance.
We’re not so sure about the contrasting turquoise highlights, though. While it may add a bit of colour and flair, it could end up looking like a refugee from the set of a B-grade sci-fi film – moto Tron tak jadi, perhaps?

Looks like a toy bike rich people buy for their kids at first
then suddenly you realized it’s a 400cc bike
looked like world war combat bike. weird looking 400cc bike. 50`s design!!!
Is it just me or it bears a striking resemblance to the bikes from the MOSPEADA anime?
Might be the colour scheme or the blocky design of the bike.. I’m interested anyway.
look like world war combat bike. 40`s design!!!
400cc bike also have 6 speed. Haiz Toyota still four speed for most of their models. Malu
Looks cool though.
Aww Honda, first the Waku Waku gate on the StepWGN, now this!
How adorable! Someone should really give the guy making these names a raise for lightening up the brand names.
yes, i can becoming your best friend but not best G
Quirky it may look but I bet it’s super practical. Looking forward to seeing the trend it brings forth here in Malaysia. How’s the top speed btw? Bhalalalalalala
Price it below RM 25,000 and i will buy it. The new Kawasaki Vulcan S with the same engine with 650 Versys engine also will be available for under RM 30k
got vtec, yo?
i really thought its made out of Lego bricks!
anyway no matter what bike , the buyer will automatically be a maniac retarded thug on the road…
Perkasa and other NGOs will oppose this ‘I want to touch a dog’ motorcycle.” Sigh…
It looks like Honda Ruckus (cup chai thailand) but in bigger engine capacity.
I kinda like the look of it, including the turquoise highlights and side mirrors. It conveys “I like having fun on bikes and am not too serious about it”.
Cool, priced below 30K I’ll probably buy it..
can be a great prop for the disaster / sci-fi / futuristic industrial movies through!
