Syakar Trading Company hosts test ride for Honda NX200

KATHMANDU: Syakar Trading Company, the authorised distributor of Honda motorcycles and scooters, hosted an exclusive media test-ride event for Honda NX200.

Themed 'From City Ride to Mountain Height – Ride It All', the event redefined the riding experience in Nepal's two-wheeler market. Media delegates and influencers embarked on an exciting journey through urban streets and rugged mountain trails, showcasing the bike’s versatility and performance.

Participants began the ride from Honda’s Ekantakuna service centre, proceeding through Nakhu, Chobhar, Chobhar dry port, Taudaha, Chalnakhel, and Pharping, before reaching the scenic forest of Hattiban, ultimately arriving at the Hattiban Himalayan Height Resort. This mix of urban, uphill, and rugged terrain allowed media representatives to experience the Honda NX200’s dynamic performance and adaptability firsthand, as it transitioned from city streets to challenging mountain trails.

The Honda NX200 meet-and-greet event brought together adventure enthusiasts and city riders, highlighting the perfect blend of rugged adventure-crossover styling and versatility in a single bike. Equipped with a USD (Up-Side Down) golden front suspension with long travel, the bike handles uneven terrain with ease, making it ideal for off-road adventures that have quickly gained popularity among Nepal’s youth. Its slipper clutch ensures smoother gear transitions, while the single-channel ABS enhances safety and control during braking. Launched in March 2024, the bike also features an ergonomic riding position, with slightly raised handlebars and an upright posture, ensuring unmatched comfort for long-distance journeys.

Following the event, a press meet was held at the scenic Hattiban Himalayan Height Resort.
