Amid Heavy Downpours, is it Safe to Ride? Don’t let rain days bring you down with these basic motorcycle safety practices


As the country continues to implement quarantine protocols to prevent the pandemic from worsening, riders face new challenges, particularly amid the rainy wet season—not only do people need to worry about contracting COVID-19, they also need to consider the sudden downpours.

 

Despite the heightening restrictions, motorcycles remain the better, practical, more reliable, and more convenient mode of transportation amid the current global health crisis. As riders—from delivery couriers to essential workers—use motorcycles to tackle their daily work tasks, ensuring safety both from the virus and rain is an important aspect they must never take for granted. 

 

As an advocate of road safety, Honda Philippines Inc. (HPI), the No. 1 motorcycle manufacturer in the country, lists some safety measures that riders must be mindful of when driving in the rain or along a wet road. 

 

Inspection Protection 

It pays to check the motorcycle's fluids as it may not mean big trouble under dry conditions, but when oil leaks are mixed with water, it becomes a recipe for slippery and dangerous situations. For beginners, still unfamiliar with motorcycle parts yet, you can have it checked with a mechanic, but plenty of easy-to-use and easy-to-check motorcycles are made for a starter's skill level.  

 

 

For instance, The New BeAT is an AT motorcycle perfect for first-time riders and millennials for its user-friendly features, ensuring safety, comfort, leak-free engine. Its advanced features such as the Enhanced Smart Power (eSP), Combi Brake System (CBS), Informative Semi Digital Meter Panel with Eco Indicator, and the Idling Stop System (ISS), allows riders to ride on their own beat. 

It is available at all Honda dealerships nationwide with a suggested retail price of Php67,400 for the standard variants and Php70,400 for the Premium (ISS/CBS). 

 

Gear Up Your Rainy Day Essentials 

Riders understand that proper riding gear such as helmets, pads, raincoats, rain boots, or riding jackets are the most effective safety measures. And it only makes sense to protect yourself from the elements with waterproof or water-resistant gear. But if you are worried that these gears might take up too much of your luggage space, no need to worry as some motorcycles can carry them after using them.   

 

For instance,  AirBlade150 with its powerful 150cc, SOHC, liquid-cooled engine has the maximum capability to operate in stop-and-go situations. And still provide you the capability to carry essentials with its 22.7L U-Box.  

 

It is also equipped with other cutting-edge features, such as Smart Key, Power Socket for recharging devices and smartphones, and a front-wheel Anti-lock Braking System (ABS), which helps determine and prevent wheels from locking up. Its suggested retail price starts at Php109,000.00

 

Ride Smoother with Better Brakes 

Preparation is much different when riding out under the sun compared to when you're under the rain. Slippery roads make turning and braking trickier for motorcycles. Ensure tires are properly inflated with the pressure suitable for wet roads and have proper brake padding to stop when needed. 

 

Motorcycles also come in various forms of brakes that will suit any riding style, just like The All-New PCX160. The next level motorcycle comes in two variants such as the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) type and the Combi-Brake System (CBS) type. Both variants are equipped with front and rear disc brakes.   

 

The one-channel ABS variant comes with a Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC), guaranteeing smooth stops even during sudden brakes and added traction control. It has a starting price of Php133,900.  On the other hand, the motorcycle's CBS variant combines its front and rear brakes, allowing riders to achieve smoother operation and handling while braking. It comes with a starting price of Php115,900.   

 

With quarantine protocols heightening once again at the same time as the weather will make it harder for riders to hit the road, safety has never been more crucial. Luckily, Honda motorcycles such as The New BeAT AirBlade150, and The All-New PCX160 are here to provide the joy of mobility to Filipinos of every stature in life fulfill their everyday tasks to achieve their goals. 

 

"With motorcycle once again serving as a major mode of transportation to deliver essential goods to our doorsteps and for workers as they go to their workplaces, riders must ensure even more their safety on the road. At Honda, we will do our best to keep providing value-added, high-quality motorcycles for Filipinos to face the pandemic and show support to our hero riders," said Hervic Villa,  Motorcycle Planning Department Manager.

Daniel Padilla is the face of the new Honda Ph Gen S motorcycles


“Proud ako na mapiling endorser ng Honda Gen S motorcycles. Hindi lang kasi sa porma dapat maganda, pati na rin sa features— matipid, eco-friendly, at safe sa kalsada. ‘Pag smart rider ka, dito ka sa Honda Gen S motorcycles” --- Daniel Padilla
The celebrity teen idol Daniel Padilla enjoys a handful of activities in his career—movie and television projects and international concert tours, to name a few—yet he still finds time to be a positive influence to his fans by making the right decisions. His latest exciting venture aims to further influence today’s youth, this time to make the same smart choices on the road, through riding with Honda motorcycles.

One of the most popular and talent of ABS-CBN and Star Magic and was chosen as one of the Original Pilipino Music Junior Ambassadors in promoting local music to the Filipino youth, now headlines as the newest endorser of the latest innovative breed of Honda motorcycles—Generation Smart (Gen S). Showcasing better fuel-efficiency, road safety and eco-friendly features, the Honda motorcycle sare perfect for the diverse personalities of the emerging generation of smart riders.


Designed for the young Filipino’s varying needs and lifestyles, the Beat-Fi “Let Your Beat Out”, Click 125i “Join the Evolution”, and Zoomer-X “I.Am.Unstoppable” are all equipped with the Honda Smart Technology, a unique set of revolutionary features suited for the Gen S, to enhance and create positive impacts in their everyday life.

Daniel's personal favorite among the three motorcycles, is the Honda Zoomer-X for its real naked, tough, and durable design concept that goes with a fuel-efficient 110cc engine for a cleaner combustion and higher torque power.

Perhaps the most important features of the Honda Smart Technology, the Enhanced Smart Power (eSP), Idling Stop System (ISS), and Combined Break System (CBS) encompassfuel-efficiency, eco-friendliness, and road safety, suited for every Gen S rider.

The eSP is known for its advancement in engine technology that ensures superior engine power and improved fuel mileage, while the ISS automatically switches off the motorcycle’s engine after three (3) seconds of idling (ideal for any traffic situation), and the CBS activates both rear and front breaks for a greater and safer stopping power.

All these features in the latest Honda motorcycles are preferred by Gen S riders as well as Daniel himself.
“Pare-parehong importante ‘yung features ng Smart Technology, pero gusto ko talaga ‘yung Idling Stop System kasi na kakapahinga ‘yung makinang motorsiklo, tipid pa sa gas lalo na kung trapik,”  Padilla shared.
The Generation S is a group of people who are smart and sensible—those who value practicality and technological innovation with style. All these expectations are met by the core concept of Smart Technology, which has been the cutting edge contribution of Honda Philippines, Inc. to the motorcycle industry.

As the face of Gen S, Daniel also highlights how smart motorcycle riders make choices for the benefit of others. “Dahil na rin sa gamit naming mga motor na mas tipid sa gasolina, eco-friendly, at safe, mas magiging ligtas ang kalsada natin at mas dadami ang smart riders.”
For Daniel, there’s no other choice than the Honda Gen S motorcycles. “Dito na tayo sa merong Smart Technology! Hindi ba mas maganda ‘pagtipid sa gas, eco-friendly, at safe? Sa mga hindi pa Gen S riders, ride with us na!”

Fortunately for Philippine scooter market, we are not going to wait for the future, but the future will be now with the introduction of the New Click 125i eSP”.

PGM-FI, a technology pioneered by Honda since the introduction of Honda CX500Turbo in 1982, the 1st in the world Fuel Injected Motorcycle is also used in this model. However, the innovation is not focused on the Fuel injection of this scooter.

Every aspect that was developed in the Click 125i is Honda's effort in providing products that delivers better benefits and exceeds customer expectations.

Honda’s dedication to provide the Joy of riding a motorcycle is clearly demonstrated in the use of the revolutionary HONDA SMART TECHNOLOGY. 

The Click 125i brings future technology to the present with cut-away innovations never seen before in the local motorcycle history such as Enhance Smart Power (eSP), Idling Stop System (ISS) and trendsetter Combined Brake System (CBS).

While it does not have a “sixth sense” and cannot predict your thoughts or where you want to go, the Click 125i, has its own version of eSP and knows what riders want from their scooters.

Honda’s eSP or Enhanced Smart Power is an advance engine technology that combines high power and high fuel efficiency with a quiet start and smooth eco-friendly engine. eSP technology is able to maximize the efficient combustion and minimize friction to reduce the risk of waste, and to optimize the energy out. eSP technology is integrated with the Unique Honda ACG starter that is able to start the engine jolt free and with a more refined sound, as well as the basis for the application of advanced feature Idling Stop System (ISS). The benefit of Honda Smart Technology is further optimized with the advent of technology Combi-Brake System (CBS) which balances braking the rear wheels and front optimally.

The Honda ACG starter is exclusively developed for comfortable frequent operation of the idling Stop System. The engine is started via the same AC generator used to generate electricity and charge the battery while riding. This eliminates the need for a conventional starter motor, thus there are no reduction gears and gear meshing noises… just smooth, quiet starts.

The PGM-FI built-in Liquid cooled engine boasts of 8.40 kW (11.4PS) @8500 RPM maximum power and 11.16 N.m @6500 RPM maximum torque and delivers class leading fuel efficiency of 64.3 km/liter at 50kph or 58.9KM/liter under ECE R40 testing method *<Actual fuel consumption may be higher or lower depending on drivers habit and actual driving condition>. 

The Idling Stop System (ISS) of the Click 125i is one of the reasons for its fuel efficiency. Compared to the conventional engine which continuously consumes fuel once the engine is started, ISS eliminates wasteful fuel consumption by automatically switching the engine off after 3 seconds in traffic lights and other brief stops; and when you have to move all you have to do is just to twist the throttle to Start up and Go in less than a second.

In addition, the New Honda Click 125i eSP also features dependable Honda Safety and Security features like standard automatic Side Stand Switch where the engine does not start up when in the down position, and Brake Lock easily operated to prevent the motor jump when started or remains in the idle state when stopped on a hill. Bigger tubeless tires for better traction and more secure feeling and comfort compared to other brands. Another excellent feature is the ever reliable safety magnetic key (Magnetic Key Shutter) which effectively prevents theft and push-button seat opener. The New Honda Click 125i eSP also has the largest luggage capacity in its class at 18 liters which is capable of storing a Full-face helmet.

Image of this Futuristic Super Sport Scooter is complemented by its Trendsetter LCD Meter Panel and class leading Dual Keen Eyes LED Headlight projecting a commanding “Night-Face-Image”. The LED headlight provides a better advantage for the rider through 80% higher light intensity, 80% more efficient power consumption, and longer lifetime. 

Finally, the Adoption of a wide range of low-friction technologies and Excellent Combustion Efficiency of this engine ensures Click 125i’s better fuel efficiency and better total all-around performance. 

With the latest technology and appearance, the All New Honda Click 125i is offered at a reasonable price of SRP PhP 87,900.00 and available in 3 premium colors, Pearl Horizon White, Asteroid Black Metallic and Candy Rosy Red with Honda Genuine Accessories in selected Honda 3S shops.
