The damn engineer's have been working on this!!!


VERY COOL demonstration (http://home.attbi.com/~bernhard36/honda-ad.html)


I guess it took over 600 attempts to get it right and there is absolutely no computer or special effects.

NOTE: The original description says the tires were WAY counter balanced to roll up hill like that.

Yeah all done with accord parts. Man I would kill myself before doing 600+ takes to get that right. They said that 2 minute commercial wont' air in the US because it's not exiting enough for US customers. I agree. lol

that would be cool. if everyone on this site sent one. that would be a buttload of letters. lol it might give them some incentive. and maybe f they get tired of all the letters they might release some info about one so they can get us off there back

Heres a wild thought I just had...they might actually have a Honda ATV devolopment team seperate from there auto. line...OMG who would have thought! :rolleyes:

Obviosly they can develope more then one thing at a time....so anyone who is saying "get off your *** and stop working on things like accords" get a clue....lol Remember that thing that RECENTLY came out called the "Rincon" that was new and they didn't even have to stop making cars to make it !

This post was suppose to be taken as a "light" joke. I dont think anyone thinks that Honda has ONE factory and it changes everytime they make a quad, dirtbike, generator, car or lawn tractor....or that they have one group of engineers that design EVERYTHING they make...

Just a cool demonstation they put together.


The tires roll up hill because of the weight they put in there....you can get anything to roll up hill if you have enough counter weight put in them....keep the tire balanced, then when it is hit, the counter weight will actually outweigh the tire and it goes up a good bit...notice how they kinda go back & forth after they are done....

How much power do the other ones make? The turbo Honda makes like 150 hp...I bet it sounds cool though. :D

I think last time I checked on their website the tubo one made 160hp, I think the closest competitor is like 155 (Yamaha GP1200R). Not sure how much power the N/A one makes.
Have you ever heard any of the race boats? Oh man they sound cool when they are all built and piped. I've seen a few out at Fastech and Blowvision.

thats a good commercial but your right they spent all of their d*** time on the commercial instead of on the important things like quads.
