Positioned in Honda's scooter motorcycle lineup, the 2017 Honda Today pairs a 50 cc (3.1 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 37.8 x 44.4 mm (1.5 x 1.7 inches) with a 10.1:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the Today measures 71 kg (157 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 703 mm (27.7 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,180 mm (46.5 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 5-liter (1.3 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
