2011 Honda Sabre Switchblade (Pro Drag) Concept Review

2011 Honda Sabre Switchblade (Pro Drag) Concept
Honda R&D Americas has announced full details and photos of Honda Sabre Switchblade Pro Drag Concept bike which was designed by Edward Birtulescu. 2011 Honda Sabre Switchblade Pro Drag is based on 2010 VT1300cc engine. Designers were given free reign within a limited budget and 2 requirements, full on runners, and stay true to the core of the production vehicle.

From the stock 2010 Sabre, designer Edward Birtulescu (Honda R&D Americas) conceived Switchblade, a race-inspired cruiser that took styling cues from Formula1 and MotoGP vehicles. With one look it’s clear that Switchblade is committed to precision and performance. Full Carbon fiber dress, 3-way adjustable racing suspension and a single sided swing arm with a 535 chain conversion optimize the single focus of this design – speed. Switchblade has mass -centralized proportion to reinforce the super sport assault.
