Built around Honda's enduro - offroad motorcycle platform, the 2023 Honda Montesa 4 Ride pairs a 258.9 cc (15.8 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 78.0 x 54.2 mm (3.1 x 2.1 inches) with a 10.5:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the Montesa 4 Ride measures 82 kg (181 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 905 mm (35.6 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,335 mm (52.6 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 4.3-liter (1.1 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
