As another owner - I agree!!!!

I have been wondering when Honda would break into the market again.

That looks sweet!

I believe that I will get to see it live at the International Motorcycle Show in Cleveland this Saturday. Looking forward to it. Hopefully they won't have it up on a stand or anything so I can sit on it. I will get some pics and hopefully a "sat-on-it" report.









If you look at Honda's European site there are many similar models, they just aren't sold here. There is one they are coming out with, the Crosstourer, that looks even more intriguing. It has a V4 similar to the VFR1200. There are rumors it is coming here.

Looks cooly yes, until you look at the specs. It would seem that Honda is continuing on their path of building boring bikes for boring people.

Its nice to see a few new toys from Honda, but on a snowy day in hell, we would be reading about a 200hp, flat six powered, 6spd Cruiser chassied  Vmax, Vrod, killing nightmare.....
