https://www.mileskingsport.com/news/rss https://www.mileskingsport.com/news/miles-kingsport-new-website-over-50-years-of-honda-in-hull A New Website, Built for the Next 50 Years Fifty years ago, Miles Kingsport opened its doors in Hull as a Honda dealer. Today, we're opening something new: a completely rebuilt website, designed to make finding your next Honda simpler whether that's browsing the full 2026 range, booking a service, or getting to know the team who'll look after you long after you've ridden away. Here's what's changed, why we built it, and where to find everything. Fifty Years in Hull, and Just Getting Started Founded in 1976, Miles Kingsport has spent half a century as Hull's Honda specialist. This website marks a new chapter in that story. We didn't just want a site that looked good on launch day we wanted one built to carry us into the next fifty years, with room to grow as the Honda range does, and the speed and clarity our customers expect from a dealer who's been doing this since before most of the current range existed. Six Years Running: UK Honda Dealer of the Year We were crowned Honda UK Motorcycle Dealer of the Year for 2025 our sixth consecutive win in the category. (Yes, we know 2020 doesn't count; there was no award that year because of the pandemic.) Six wins in a row isn't down to any one thing it's the range, the workshop, and how we treat customers on every visit, not just the sale. This website is built to reflect that same standard, carrying it into how you research, browse and buy a Honda from us online. The Team Behind Every Visit A website can only do so much the rest comes down to the people you actually deal with. Every member of our team has been with Miles Kingsport for ten years or more: Chairman Tim Wade and Managing Director Andrew Kirkup lead the business, Mike Hailstone heads up After Sales, Craig Nuttall looks after online business development alongside parts and clothing advice, and our workshop is kept running by Technician Michael Saunders and Service Centre Foreman Ben Rusling, alongside Lee Fetches. That kind of experience doesn't show up on a spec sheet, but it's there every time you walk through the door or now, every time you get in touch through the new site. 150+ Machines, Nine Ranges, One Specialist Team Our showroom carries over 150 new and used machines, spanning the full breadth of Honda's 2026 line-up from 125cc first bikes through Adventure, Custom, Touring, Street, Supersports, Sport Touring, Scooters and Electric. We're also part of Honda's official Gold Wing specialist dealer network, and currently the UK's No.2 Gold Wing dealer by sales a title we'd very much like to make No.1. The Benefit:Honda dealer support & knowledge, Genuine Honda parts, and clothing from brands including Schuberth, Shark, Richa, Nolan/SMK and Hiplok, factory-trained technicians working with the latest Honda diagnostic tooling, and nationwide delivery carried out by our own team rather than a courier. The Result: Whichever Honda you choose, and wherever you're riding home to, you get the same specialist standard of service Miles Kingsport has built its reputation on. Built to Last (And Built Again) This isn't the first time Miles Kingsport has had a website built by DealerWebs it's the second, who else could we trust with our digital showroom. We won't pretend we didn't enjoy getting the chance to go again, this time with fifty years of history and six Dealer of the Year wins to do justice to. Here's hoping the next update is a long way off. Explore the New Site Everything on Miles Kingsport is just a click away. Here's the full site, grouped so you can jump straight to what you're after.

Get in Touch Thu, 17 Sep 2026 00:00:00 BST https://www.mileskingsport.com/news/about-the-2026-honda-motorcycle-range The 2026 Honda Motorcycle Range: Innovation Meets the Open Road Whether you're carving through canyon roads, embarking on a cross-country tour, or navigating the daily urban commute, Hondas 2026 motorcycle lineup is engineered to thrill. At Miles Kingsport, we are incredibly excited to showcase a range that blends Honda's legendary reliability with cutting-edge rider technology. Lets dive into the core features, fresh categories, and benefits that make the 2026 lineup truly special. The E-Clutch Revolution: Street & Supersports One of the biggest leaps forward for 2026 is the widespread rollout of Honda's groundbreaking E-Clutch technology. Available across popular Street and Supersport models like the aggressive CB750 HORNET, the sporty CBR650R, and the agile CB500 HORNET, this system changes the game. The Benefit: The E-Clutch eliminates the need to manually use the clutch lever when pulling away, stopping, or shifting gearsbut still gives you the physical lever if you want to use it the traditional way. The Result: Smoother urban riding, significantly reduced left-hand fatigue in stop-and-go traffic, and lightning-fast, seamless gear changes when you hit the twisties. For those looking for ultimate performance, 2026 also sees the formidable CBR1000RR-R FIREBLADE SP and the striking new CB1000F continuing to push the boundaries of power and aerodynamics. Limitless Exploration: The Adventure Range Hondas Adventure line continues to set the benchmark for dual-purpose riding. The legendary CRF1100L Africa Twin remains the undisputed king of the dirt and tarmac, now offering multiple configurations including Electronic Suspension (ES) and Adventure Sports variants. The Benefit: Showa Electronically Equipped Ride Adjustment (EERA) instantly adjusts damping force relative to your riding speed and terrain. Honda's refined Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT) allows for automatic shifting or manual trigger control without breaking focus. The Result: Supreme comfort on long highway stretches and unmatched capability when the road turns to dirt. The adventure doesn't stop at a liter engine. Models like the NX500 E-Clutch, the returning XL750 Transalp, and the ultra-unique X-ADV crossover make exploration accessible and exciting for every class of rider. Touring in Absolute Luxury For those who measure their rides in days rather than hours, the 2026 touring line delivers. The iconic Gold Wing Tour DCT returns to offer the pinnacle of long-distance luxury. The Benefit: Massive luggage capacity, aerodynamic weather protection, advanced infotainment (including Apple CarPlay & Android Auto), heated seats, and effortless DCT powertrains. The Result: You arrive at your destination feeling as fresh as when you set off. If you want touring capability with a sportier edge, the NT1100 (available with Electronic Suspension) and the brand new CB1000GT perfectly bridge the gap between daily commuter and grand tourer. Naked Ambition: The Street Range From adrenaline-fuelled hooligan nakeds to laid-back retro roadsters, Honda's 2026 Street range covers every kind of rider. The CB1000 Hornet and CB1000 Hornet SP sit at the sharp end with aggressive styling and serious performance, while the CB750 Hornet, CB650R and CB500 Hornet bring the same attitude to more accessible licence classes, all three now available with Honda's E-Clutch technology. The Benefit: E-Clutch models take the manual clutch lever out of pulling away, stopping and shifting (while still leaving it there if you want it), and every bike in the range pairs punchy, naked-bike performance with an upright, commanding riding position. The Result: A street bike that's as happy carving a B-road at the weekend as it is filtering through traffic on the commute. For riders after something a little more relaxed, the naked CB1000F brings a more restrained take on the flagship platform, while the neo-retro CL500 scrambler and the classically styled GB350S round out the range with kerb appeal that trades outright aggression for everyday character. Track-Bred Thrills: The Supersports Range Honda's Supersports line carries the brand's racing DNA straight onto the road. Leading the range is the formidable CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP, a MotoGP-inspired flagship built for outright performance, alongside the track-focused CBR600RR for riders who want race-bike handling without the litre-class power. The Benefit: Full fairings, aggressive ergonomics and race-derived chassis technology across the range, with E-Clutch available on the CBR650R and CBR500R for smoother, clutch-free gear changes without losing any of the sports-bike edge. The Result: Genuine track capability that's just as at home carving your favourite A-road on a Sunday morning. Whichever licence class you're riding on, there's a Supersports Honda to suit, from the approachable CBR500R right up to the CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP. The Best of Both Worlds: The Sport Touring Range Sitting between the naked Street range and the full-dress Gold Wing, the CB1000GT is Honda's answer for riders who want sports-bike performance without giving up long-distance comfort. The Benefit: A sports-focused chassis and punchy in-line four engine, built around a more upright, comfort-oriented riding position with weather protection built in for longer days in the saddle. The Result: A bike that's equally happy on a spirited ride out or a full day's touring, without asking you to compromise on either. If you're torn between a sports bike and a tourer, the CB1000GT is built to mean you don't have to choose. Custom Cool: The Rebel Family Cruiser styling meets modern handling in Honda's 2026 Custom lineup. The CMX500 Rebel continues to be a favorite for A2 license holders, while the muscular CMX1100 Rebel packs a serious punch. The Benefit: An ultra-low seat height, relaxed riding position, and stripped-back bobber styling. The 1100cc version even offers an optional SE DCT for twist-and-go cruising. The Result: A deeply confidence-inspiring ride that looks fantastic parked outside a cafe and handles beautifully on winding country lanes. The 125cc Heroes: Fun & Accessible Whether you're a new rider on a CBT or a veteran looking for a weekend plaything, Honda's 125cc range is packed with character. The lineup features retro icons and modern streetfighters alike. The Models: The retro-cool Monkey and Dax 125, the timeless Super Cub 125, the hooligan MSX 125 Grom, and the sharp CB125R. The Benefit: Incredible fuel efficiency (often exceeding 130 mpg), cheap insurance, and feather-light curb weights. The Result: Commuting transforms from a chore into the best part of your day. Smart Urban Mobility: Scooters & Electric For navigating tight city streets and avoiding congestion charges, Hondas 2026 scooter and electric range is unmatched. The premium Forza family (available in 125, 350, and 750cc) offers maxi-scooter luxury, while the rugged ADV 350 brings adventure styling to the urban jungle. Furthermore, Honda is aggressively expanding its footprint into zero-emission mobility. For 2026, we are thrilled to feature new electric additions like the WN7 and the CUV E scooter. The Benefit: Under-seat storage large enough for full-face helmets, Smart Key ignition, and on the EV sideinstant torque, zero tailpipe emissions, and near-silent operation. The Result: The ultimate practical, eco-conscious, and convenient way to tackle modern city life.

From an approachable introduction to full-fairing performance right up to a genuine MotoGP-derived flagship, there's a Supersports Honda for every stage of a rider's journey. Here's what makes each model in the range worth a closer look. E-Clutch Takes on the Track: CBR650R & CBR500R The CBR650R and CBR500R are where most riders' Supersports journey begins, and both are now available with Honda's E-Clutch technology bringing clutch-free gear changes to full-fairing performance for the first time. The Benefit: E-Clutch removes the need to use the clutch lever when pulling away, stopping or shifting while leaving the lever fully functional if you'd rather ride the traditional way paired with genuine supersports styling and a race-inspired riding position. The Result: All the drama of a full-fairing Honda with none of the added workload in traffic, making the CBR650R and CBR500R two of the easiest routes into serious sports bike riding. Both models sit in accessible capacity classes without asking you to compromise on the look or feel of a proper supersports machine. Built From Racing: CBR600RR & CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP For riders who want their road bike to carry genuine race-track DNA, the CBR600RR and CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP sit at the top of Honda's Supersports tree. The CBR600RR brings razor-sharp middleweight handling, while the Fireblade SP is Honda's MotoGP-inspired flagship, built with input straight from the factory racing programme. The Benefit: A race-derived chassis, aggressive aerodynamic bodywork and premium electronic suspension on the Fireblade SP, engineered for confidence-inspiring stability at genuine track speeds. The Result: Track-day performance you can ride straight out of the showroom, whether that's a Sunday morning blast or a full day on circuit. These are the models that prove Honda's racing success isn't just for show it's engineered directly into the bikes you can buy today. Which Supersports Honda Is Right for You? With four models spanning different licence classes, engine capacities and levels of outright performance, choosing the right Supersports Honda comes down to how and where you'll ride. If you're stepping up into full-fairing performance for the first time, the CBR500R or CBR650R give you the looks and the thrill without overwhelming the experience. If you're chasing genuine track capability, the CBR600RR and CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP are built to deliver it. Our team at Miles Kingsport knows this range inside out and is always happy to talk through which model and which spec suits your riding best.

From a flagship built to cross continents to a lightweight trail bike that's happy falling over in the mud, the 2026 Adventure line-up has a Honda for every kind of exploring. Flagship Exploration: The CRF1100L Africa Twin The CRF1100L Africa Twin remains the benchmark for serious dual-purpose riding, now offered in both standard ES and long-range Adventure Sports ES guises the latter adding a larger fuel tank and extra suspension travel for genuinely remote riding. The Benefit: Electronically controlled suspension that adjusts damping to your speed and the terrain, plus the option of Honda's Dual Clutch Transmission for automatic shifting or manual trigger control without ever touching a clutch lever. The Result: A bike that's as composed on a motorway slog as it is genuinely capable when the tarmac runs out. E-Clutch & DCT Versatility: NX500, XL750 Transalp & NC750X For riders who want adventure styling without the flagship price tag, the NX500 and XL750 Transalp are both now available with Honda's E-Clutch technology, while the ever-practical NC750X continues to offer huge under-seat storage where a fuel tank would normally sit, with an optional DCT gearbox of its own. The Benefit: E-Clutch takes the manual clutch lever out of pulling away, stopping and shifting while leaving it there if you want it and the NC750X's clever storage means one less thing to carry on your back. The Result: Adventure-ready capability that's genuinely easy to live with day to day, not just at the weekend. Something Completely Different: The X-ADV The X-ADV doesn't fit neatly into any other category, and that's the point. Part adventure bike, part automatic scooter, it pairs rugged styling with a twist-and-go DCT gearbox, and is available in standard, SE and range-topping SE+ specification. The Benefit: Fully automatic DCT transmission with genuine adventure-bike ground clearance and styling, no clutch or gear lever in sight. The Result: All the presence of an adventure bike with the effortless simplicity of a scooter there's nothing else quite like it on the road. Ready for Real Off-Road: CRF300L & CRF300 Rally At the lighter end of the range, the CRF300L and long-legged CRF300 Rally bring genuine trail capability to riders who want to get properly off-road without the weight and bulk of the bigger Adventure models. The Benefit: A light, single-cylinder platform that's easy to manage at low speed and on technical terrain, with the Rally adding a bigger tank and taller screen for longer days exploring further afield. The Result: A genuinely capable trail bike that doesn't punish you for being a smaller or less experienced rider. Which Adventure Honda Is Right for You? With six model families covering everything from lightweight trail riding to continent-crossing touring, the right Adventure Honda comes down to where and how far you actually want to go. Staying mostly on tarmac with the odd gravel track points you towards the NC750X or X-ADV; wanting genuine off-road ability means the CRF300L, CRF300 Rally or the flagship Africa Twin; and the NX500 or XL750 Transalp sit comfortably in between. Our team at Miles Kingsport knows this range inside out and is always happy to talk through which model and which spec suits your riding best.
