I came across these interesting photo from the Honda booth at European bike show. Can there be some genetic material for the next gen?? :excl: Honda made an effort to highlight the V-FOUR engine....

Enjoy

This stupid piece of plastic and fibreglass is getting WAY TOO MUCH PRESS.

I'll stick to the sexy looks of the 6th gen and classic lines of the 5th thanks :angry:

1: it is ugly.

2: it doesn't run.

What is the point of that? They could have used the money it cost them to develop that turd for something far more productive, such as some BNG for the '10 VFR! Why innovate when you can just come out with new colors? :goofy:

They mounted the pegs on the swingarm? That'll make for an interesting sensation while riding...

Not that I am overly "Function over Form" or anything, but I do like my wheels to roll on my motorcycles.

Things like tires, suspension, brakes, a transmission, drive mechanism, and way to turn the bike would also be valuable additions to this bad joke.

Ever rested your left heel on the swingarm while riding? It is pretty interesting!

You gotta admit, it does cause a bit of buzz... I think they are keen on implying that the 'next big thing' will be a SPORT V-4. Should be interesting.

Are guys stupid or something?

Turn?

You get on the thing. Turn it on. Plug in the coordinates, call Scotty, and he takes care of the rest.

So Honda really IS in bed with Yamaha. Can anyone say SSA-equipped R6?

I guess they just really miss Rossi now that he's winning. Maybe next year's concept will look like a Duc? :laugh:

I loved 'TRON'. I even had the atari 2600 game for it. (Or was that Sega, no wait Commodore 6... Oh well I forget)
