The specimens can be admired from the 20 December 2022 to the 31 May 2023, as mentioned.
Honda Motor Europe Ltd. Italy, on this occasion, showcases the custom bike developed thanks to the collaboration with MAAN Audacious Motorcycles of Cagliari and already admired at EICMA in 2019. This is the Super Cub 125X, a reinterpretation of the well-known geared moped with the adoption of distinctive elements such as the duck-tail mudguard custom-developed in metal by Serri Motorsport, the front plastics and the disc cover designed in CAD and 3D printed with the involvement of some students of the FabLab NAT14 of Iglesias under the direction of prof. Massimo Lumini, therefore a stratified carbon exhaust system defined by Il Sarto dei Metalli.

Furthermore, the Motocicli Audaci team of Nicola Manca, responsible for the design and general coordination, and Matteo Murgia, highlight the BARBARA chopper, created based on the historic Honda CN250 maxi-scooter.

Also starring were two concept bikes exhibited by Honda, the CB4Concept and a transformation based on CB1100, developed by the model maker Antonio Arcadu and the team at the Honda R&D center in Rome.
Honda CB4 Concept is a "total black" work that derives from constant research on the "Neo Sports Cafè" theme, representing a combination of aesthetics and technological solutions. In front there is a wind turbine which, producing clean energy through the inertia of the motorbike, powers a "touch screen" display integrated into the tank, connected to monitor the road via digital maps or to make emergency calls or connect devices, implementing passive safety.
La Honda CB1100TR Concept, instead, is an exercise in style based on the CB1100 roadster. A naked that recalls the flat track panorama with a purely sporty approach. The #58 visible on the CB1100TR Concept was selected by the Italian R&D center to remember the rider Marco Simoncelli.
