The engine performance is supported by new frame eSAF technology from Honda which has been applied for the first time for a two-wheeled vehicle in Indonesia. This frame uses the latest production process such as press and laser welding process. The structure is developed to increase handling stability, so the Genio becomes easy to ride, light, and comfortable to manoeuvre.
