That's a nice lookin' bike. A few more cc's would be cool.

Might suit New Zealand with the ridiculous 62 mph open road limit, but no super slab and plenty of twisties. Like the analogue speedo, but not Blue Tooth and phone connectivity, distractions while you ride.

I'm ready for a 500cc version single , same wheels and style . I suspect they will re-use the 500 twin on it by time we get it, but liquid cooled would ruin it !

Maybe Suzuki will make their TU-250 into a 400 or 500cc ? They have to compete ! :)

The style of the Honda is nice ! I'd rather have a 500 version of it . :P

So many neat bikes and so little room on the porch ! :-[

If you listen to the exhaust videos on the 'Tube, it's even got a nice thump.

I'd ride it to work and be happy. No way the sell it for $2500 in the US though.

Agreed, even if it comes here (doubtful), they'll try to sell it for 5k or more. I hope it comes to the US, and that we'll see a 500 kit by one of the aftermarket companies. If it's under 5k, I'd be interested!

I don't think putting 500cc's on a crank-case made for 350cc would be a good idea. Even if the crankshaft held-up the transmission would be under a lot of pressure to keep up . :-/

It needs at least 500cc to sell in America I think. It sure is a good looking machine ! :)
