Introduction to HONDA Stunner CBF
Honda Motor Company, Ltd.is
a Japanese public multinational corporation primarily known as a manufacturer
of automobiles and motorcycles. Honda has been the
world's largest motorcycle manufacturer since 1959, as well as the world's
largest manufacturer of internal combustion engines measured by volume,
producing more than 14 million internal combustion engines each year. Honda
surpassed Nissan in 2001 to become the second-largest Japanese automobile
manufacturer. As of August 2008, Honda surpassed Chrysler as the fourth largest
automobile manufacturer in the United States. Honda was the seventh largest
automobile manufacturer in the world behind Toyota, General Motors, Volkswagen
AG, Hyundai Motor Group, Ford, and Nissan in 2010.
Honda was the first Japanese automobile
manufacturer to release a dedicated luxury brand, Acura, Aside from their core
automobile and motorcycle businesses, Honda also manufactures garden equipment,
marine engines, personal watercraft and power generators, amongst others.
Honda is the largest motorcycle manufacturer in
Japan and has been since it started production in 1955. At its peak in 1982,
Honda manufactured almost 3 million motorcycles annually. By 2006 this figure
had reduced to around 550,000 but was still higher than its three domestic
competitors.
During the 1960s, when it was a small
manufacturer, Honda broke out of the Japanese motorcycle market and began
exporting to the U.S. Working with the advertising agency Grey Advertising,
Honda created an innovative marketing campaign, using the slogan "You meet
the nicest people on a Honda." In contrast to the prevailing negative
stereotypes of motorcyclists in America as tough, antisocial rebels, this
campaign suggested that Honda motorcycles were made for the everyman. The
campaign was hugely successful; the ads ran for three years, and by the end of
1963 alone, Honda had sold 90,000 motorcycles. Honda has also
built a downhill racing bicycle known as the Honda RN-01. It is not available
for sale to the public. The key feature of this bike is the gearbox, which
replaces the standard derailleur found on most bikes.
