Sweet deal...but good lord, could they make it any uglier?

Amber Lamps · 06-25-2009, 08:17 AM

I wonder if it will be eligible for the Daytona Sport Bike class?

Also, how'd you like that guy's riding out fit? Boots, gloves, chinos and a sweatshirt!

When I can see and touch a new VFR (if there will ever be one...) THEN I will believe it..

Unfortunately, it's a Honda which means yes, they can and will.

It looks like they are hiring the drop-outs from the "I wanna work for BMW but my sketches are too ugly even for them" school of design.

I have to agree that bike is ugly. Honda,

Hoplessly uninspiring. better be a real performer...ewwwww!

well looks like they were somewhat faithful to the concept. still disgusting, looks like three different bikes smashed together (nose, tank, and tail DO not match) and at least kawi gets a reprieve for not having the ugliest stock exhaust anymore
