Honda’s Red Ride Demo Days Return for 2026

Nothing beats swinging a leg over a bike and feeling what it sounds and rides like before you sign on the dotted line. Honda is hitting the road hard for 2026, expanding its Ride Red Demo Days program to give riders access to its on-road lineup through a nationwide dealer tour.

Demo Fleet Hits 50 Dealerships

Kicking off April 3–4 at RideNow Peoria in Arizona, two dedicated Honda demo trucks will crisscross the eastern and western US, visiting about 50 powersports dealerships year-round. Many stops feature food trucks, family activities, giveaways, and direct dealer interaction.

Models available for test rides (availability is subject to change) span Honda’s on-road lineup, including:

• Touring: Gold Wing
• Sport Touring: NT1100
• Adventure: Africa Twin, Transalp, NX500
• Dual Sport: CRF450RL, CRF300L Rally
• Cruiser: Rebel 1100, Rebel 300 E-Clutch
• Sport & Standard: CBR1000RR, CB1000 Hornet SP, CB750 Hornet, CB650R E-Clutch, CBR500R, and CB300R.

Real-World Test Rides

“As any rider knows, the best way to understand a motorcycle is from behind the handlebars,” says Colin Miller, American Honda’s experiential marketing manager. The program, backed by Honda’s dealer network, puts real-world evaluation within easy reach, whether you’re cross-shopping adventure bikes or curious about the latest E-Clutch Rebels.
