The Deauville’s development team set out to build on this popular motorcycle’s proven strengths with a list of desired refinements gleaned from rider feedback. Refinements included such basic improvements as expanded carrying capacity and stronger performance, important fundamental steps toward achieving a further evolution of the Deauville’s proven ‘Multi-Use’ concept.
New Piggyback-Style Dual Multi-Reflector Headlight
One of the first changes in the Deauville’s look to catch the eye is its new dual multi-reflector headlight, which features a sharply tapered piggyback design that positions its brilliant high beam directly over its ever-on low beam under a single, compact clear-face flush-surface lens.
New 2-Position Windscreen
The Deauville’s wide-coverage windscreen has also been enlarged and improved with new mounting hardware that not only offers a 170mm change in screen height, but also a change in screen angle.
New Instrument Panel Design
The new 20006 Deauville also features a more modern and attractive new instrument panel, with an eye-catching four-dial façade integrating new fuel and coolant temperature gauges around its larger rev counter and speedometer dials.
Increased Carrying Capacity
The Deauville’s unique built-in pannier bags have been significantly increased in size and carrying capacity. While maintaining their elegantly integrated look, the left-side pannier was increased in volume from 24 to 27.4 litres, while the right-side bag was boosted in size from 19.5 to a full 26.7 litres, for an overall increase of fully 10.6 litres in carrying volume.
Larger Displacement
In the interests of boosting the Deauville’s power output without resorting to major modifications to the engine’s basic overall construction figures, its cylinder bores and pistons were increased by 2mm (from 79 to 81mm) while stroke was left untouched, resulting in a 33cm3 increase in total capacity, from 647 to 680cm3.
New PGM-FI Fuel Injection System
Like most of Honda’s finest road bikes, the new 2006 Deauville now features one of Honda’s most advanced PGM-FI electronic fuel injection systems for accurate fuel delivery, easy starting, highly responsive throttle control and exceptionally low exhaust emissions.
New ABS Version
The new Deauville also offers the option of a separate new version equipped with Honda’s remarkably smooth and efficient Antilock Brake System (ABS) in addition to its standard equipped Combined Brake System. Like the systems featured on several other Honda models, the Deauville ABS’s compact and highly advanced ABS provides exceptionally smooth and confidence-inspiring braking control in the most extreme braking conditions, where riders of all skill levels need it most. |
