Honda expands 2026 Ride Red Demo Days
Honda is expanding its Ride Red Demo Days program for 2026, giving riders around the country more chances to sample its street-focused lineup at local dealerships. The nationwide effort, run in partnership with Honda’s dealer network, will bring dedicated demo fleets to about 50 Honda powersports dealers in the U.S., beginning April 3–4 at RideNow Peoria in Peoria, Arizona.
For sport touring riders, the headline model is the Honda NT1100, which is included in the demo lineup. Other motorcycles available for test rides are expected to include the Gold Wing, Africa Twin, Transalp, NX500, Rebel 1100, CB1000 Hornet SP and CB750 Hornet, among others, with model availability subject to change by event.
Honda says the program is intended to make test rides easier to access while giving riders a more hands-on way to experience the company’s motorcycles. “As any rider knows, the best way to understand a motorcycle is from behind the handlebars,” said Colin Miller, manager of experiential marketing at American Honda. “With the support of our amazing dealer network, Ride Red Demo Days give customers a convenient, fun, hands-on opportunity to experience the performance, comfort and technology of Honda’s extensive lineup of two-wheel on-road models in real-world conditions, helping them discover the bike that truly fits their riding style and needs.”
Many stops will also include food, giveaways and family-friendly activities.
