Three-wheel vehicle models are the new pattern for the significant vehicle makers however Yamaha NIKEN is the main trike accessible available to be purchased in the market. Going to the most recent news on the equivalent, Honda has been conceded a patent for its three-wheel bike, NeoWing.

Honda NeoWing is relied upon to be founded on indistinguishable motor details from that of the Gold Wing. The single wheel at the back is associated with the motor while the double front wheels are associated with the controlling. The bicycle can incline toward corners simply like different bicycles yet would offer greater solidness and control.
According to the patent, the Honda NeoWing might feature a 6-cylinder engine borrowed from the Gold Wing though, the company does suggest a 2-cylinder engine also.

When launched in the International market, the Honda NeoWing would be represented as a premium offering in the brand’s lineup.
