I dig it. It fixes most of what I've hated about the Hornets of the last few years - the looks. :fing02:

I assume it's not coming anywhere near North America, so oh well... :computer-noworky:
#3
Man, that black one is sharp! Wish it came in a 750 ;)
#4
Looks nice. Doesn't seem that much less sporty than the RR. Judging by the tank, I see Honda is still trying hard to kill the tank bag market.
#5
I have not thrown a leg over the new RR, but my understanding is that they are comfy.

I wonder if they missed the mark on this one?
#6
Nice. Is this the return of the F4i? Great 600cc sportbike, not as fast as a CBR600RR, but more comfortable - and with a better front end than the F4 series. :biggrin:

The styling reminds me of the Kaw. Ninja 650R.
#7
The graphics on the white and red bike are, as always, a bit silly but it could be a nice little bike in black or blue trim.

I'm very happy to see the ever-present three spoke wheels give way to five spoke.

They even did a nice job on the can too.
#8
Nice find Keny. I guess these are not coming to the US....just thinking about a progression for minicarver....
#9
Looks good but it kind of looks like the love child of a Yamaha R6 and a Gixer 750?

The plastics say Yamaha and it has it's fauzer's eye. You know, da fauzer. . . his fauzer. . . . da dad. . . . that's what I said. Za Fauzer.
#10
Looks like a competitor to the Kan-o-tuna. Interesting looking, though I think the sweet spot for a bike like this is actually 500cc. But that would mean either sleeving the engine, or developing a new one, instead of just de-tuning the normal 600cc engine.
#11
Only bad thing, that seat has got enough hard lines to cut your crotch clean off.

Its stupidity to put right angled hard lines in the crotch area, but about all the manfactures seem to do that, the crotch arer should be totally smooth and flowing.

I guess many of us would have been happy if Mr Honda had given the VTEC a facelift in form of new faring/tail, a USD fork and some more adjustability on the stock suspension?

Looks like a Suzuki to me.

*Ouch*.

I don't like the looks.
#16
I like the appearance of the bike, and am a big fan of middleweights. Looks like they did not give it radial mounted front brakes. Should have used the brakes from the CBR 600.
#17
Looks like a great mid-range tourer/commuter. Good motor, nice looks and really good hardware for a mid-range bike.

Reminds me of a Suzuki GS500 but with much better brakes, forks, and overall build.

Fugly. As mentioned earlier, it kind of looks like the Kawi 650R.
