Classic tri-color prints, long saddles in black and red impact, rich in rally style settings, the first impression that comes to mind is not the dual CRF1100L, the star model that competes in the world, is also my dream bike, but the price of 198000 is really far away. But fortunately, today the new Honda small non-double CRF190L came. In addition to the more affordable price, can the driving quality and passing ability support the price of this CRF190L tri-color version of 17889, as well as the nickname of small non-double?
The design will not be repeated, let us use the meitu to appreciate the momentum of this CRF190L.
-Performance Testing-
Powerly, the CRF190Ll differs from the 190 family, with an engine maximum power of 11.6 kW at 8500 rpm and a maximum torque of 15.8 N.m erupting at 6000 rpm. It can be seen that compared with the 12.4kw/8000rpm on the street car and the maximum torque of 16.3N.m/7000rpm, the engine of the CRF190L has been adjusted to a certain extent, and the maximum torque is output 1000rpm in advance, which improves the riding effect of the non-paved road.
We also took this car to a 100-kilometer test, because the weight is 40 pounds higher than that of Sanqi classmates, my zero hundred score is more than 1 second slower than Sanqi's 14.3 seconds, which is 15.6 seconds. Fortunately, the focus of this car is not acceleration, on the highway, the acceleration data brought by this displacement is really not important, I want to take this car to the motorcycle brigade, and I must have a soft temper a lot, so the setting of this car is to find the right way to play, and I have to walk around the road without paving to try, which we will talk about later.
Stable braking performance
The configuration of the CRF190L on the brake is more "simple" than that of the front dual-piston caliper with a single-channel ABS, and the rear brake is drum brake. The choice of tires uses the turtle back tire of the Zhengxin brand. After many repeated measurements, the best result of 60km/h to 0 is 18.9m, and the best score of 30km/h to 0 is 4.7m. During braking, when braking vigorously front and rear at the same time, the rear wheels are more likely to be locked, causing the tires to leave a black mark on the ground and can brake a smoke. However, it is commendable that the CRF190L has been braked in a straight line in several times, although the rear wheels are locked, and there is no tail flicking performance.
On the sense of making the hand, when braking at the same time before and after, with the pinch, step by step, with the increase of the braking force stable stop, although there is no strong sense of hitting the wall, but the confidence of braking is still enough. Here to mention the braking efficiency of the rear drum brake separately, compared to the blessing of the front wheel ABS, the drum brake is easier to hold, the brake force as long as more than one-third, the rear wheel at any time into the sliding mode, fun is fun, travel should pay attention to, emergency braking to stabilize the faucet, can not be obviously deflected, otherwise it may slide sideways. But this rear drum brake on non-paved pavement, but it is very good to use, it is easier to complete the action of the sliding tire, the braking performance is stable, but it is a good plus.
No stress to ride
Riding posture, the first glance crF190L up to 830mm sitting height is really not close enough, after the actual ride, I am 177cm tall, 75kg weight, just two soles of the feet all landed, no pressure. Posture on this CRF190L, set the front foot position, provide comfortable legroom, long-distance travel to reduce fatigue, the height of the front windshield, the upper body has a good wind resistance protection, used for road travel, the problem is not big.
-Mountain Road Ride-
In terms of road riding, this CRF190L performance is still Honda style, easy to steer, flexible lane changes, smooth gear changes, and after running the spring wind ten miles of mountain roads, it is even more confirmed by this idea. Deceleration before entering the bend, the engine is very silky in the continuous downshift, the front wheel in the heavy braking of the ground is enough, but the shock absorber due to the obvious soft adjustment, its sinking amount is larger, there is a certain sense of instability. After passing the corner, quickly open the oil out of the bend, its tire grip is enough, but limited to normal corner driving, and is not suitable for the extreme inclination of the corner, mainly the setting of this multi-functional tire, more biased to the non-paved road.
-Unpaved Road Riding-
In order to squeeze out the true strength of CRF190L, the venue chosen this time is known as a paradise for off-road enthusiasts, with dirt roads, gravel roads, grass, steep slopes, and flat land composed of continuous potholes, which is not small. Wear good equipment, the first rush is a steep slope of more than 35 degrees, standing posture riding under the big throttle, CRF190L is very easy to rush the slope successfully, the performance of the turtle back tire is good, the response of the throttle is also very sensitive, the manufacturer is in the tuning of the effort, but there is a little bit not very good, the foot position is somewhat forward, the legs are bent when riding in the standing posture, and the time has a more obvious sense of fatigue.
The corners are not the advantages of the CRF190L, and in the driving of non-paved roads, the performance of the CRF190L can definitely be described as impressive, which can be said to be a smooth road and fearless. The configuration is directly in place, the front 37mm upright fork, the front 19 and rear 17 spoke wheels, with 241mm ground clearance, the passability has already possessed the level of a small off-road vehicle, with the CRF190L rear multi-link suspension, the impact resistance is better.
The second scene is a continuous pothole of shell craters flat, in order to maintain the speed output, at a speed of about 57km/h in 2 gears, through continuous potholes, the suspension did not appear to touch the bottom, and the shock absorber effect performed well. Throughout the unpaved road driving process, the vibration damping tuning gives the rider a lot of confidence. Light body, through this large continuous pothole ground, can give you a very controllable feeling, if it is a large displacement ADV, such as the upper and lower figures of such a place, nine times out of ten is to be trapped, the car light is good, large displacement ADV does not dare to go to the place, it can run easily. Using this CRF190L to do off-road entry is perfectly sufficient.
Endurance has always been the strength of the 190 series, this CRF190L is no exception, the fuel tank volume of 14L, in our violent speed measurement, and a large number of non-paved road driving, the comprehensive fuel consumption is only 2.9L / 100 km, the actual use can ensure 500km of endurance.
-Summary-
Everyone jokingly calls this car "small non-double", and it can indeed be evaluated in this way through the driving and riding of various scenes. This is a road 30%, off-road accounted for 70% of the model, use it to run the road as long as you do not pursue high power, it can give you a comfortable riding experience. Put it into the driving scene of non-paved crossing, CRF190L can also give you some unexpected surprises, of course, use it to make a trip, its own excellent tuning and smooth power, support long range of long-distance driving, beyond the ability of ADV models to pass, combined with these points, call him a civilian "small non-double", but also reasonable, appropriate.
