Yeah, it's April Fool's Day, but Honda actually did release a couple of early 2015 off-road models today, with their CRF50F and CRF110F. There was also an all-new model, the Honda NM4, that does sort of look like something you'd expect to see as a prank. But underneath the futuristic bodywork you'll find a 670cc, liquid-cooled, parallel-twin engine with four valves per cylinder. It also has an automatic six-speed dual-clutch transmission and ABS.
