The Honda Unicorn is a motorcycle developed by Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India (HMSI) and introduced in 2005. It was the first motorcycle in India to feature a mono-shock. The whole bike was built from scratch and was designed by the R&D team of Honda based in Osaka, Japan. The design of the bike was done keeping in mind Indian road conditions. Many new features were incorporated, such as two-way air jacket, a diamond frame, an engine producing a torque of 12.8 Nm at a relatively low 5500 RPM for good fuel economy. The first version of the bike featured spoke wheels and kick start only.
The second version featured a self starter and new graphics on the body. Honda released this version to compete with the Bajaj Pulsar and the TVS Apache. Changes included alloy wheels, powder coated engine with a buffed head and new graphics, clear lens indicator lamps, a trip meter, and a slightly smaller rear grab rail. A limited Moto GP edition had the guise of a Repsol Honda RC211V.
