Honda has made quite a few weird and wonderful motorcycles over the years. From the dorky yet ultra-functional NC750X to the oddly cute Cub EZ90 “motocross scooter,” it’s clear that Honda’s a brand that’s not afraid of some good old experimentation. Such is also the case with the NM4, a strange cruiser that seems like it’s not exactly sure whether it wants to be a motorcycle or a spaceship.
The NM4 was part of Honda’s catalog from 2014 to 2019, and was created specifically to attract non-motorcyclists into the world of two wheels. I remember very clearly when I first saw this bike. Quite frankly, I didn’t get it at first, as its styling seemed otherworldly and outlandish – even by today’s standards. That said, it’s understandable why the bike was discontinued for the 2020 model-year, as it just wasn’t raking in the sales figures of its other more conventional siblings.
