Honda Multistrada-ish?

Interesting bike coming to the US with a $7k price tag. Obviously lacks the power of the Multistrada 1200, but the spec's make it sound like an affordable sport-touring bike, maybe light off-road use?

No way can this be compared to a Multistrada...

Hondas are way to reliable to every be lumped into the same group.

looks quite similar to the V4 800 crossrunner thingy they had out last year. Don't think it was ever brought to the states.

Looks to be a competitor with the Kawasaki Versys.

U got that right

Yeah, kind of like the Cross country/cross runner thing they were "supposed" to release here. I like the idea of 60 mpg but I wonder what they were trying to do with the single disc brake in the front?

Neat bike for nearly any use one would have. The dual clutch version looks intriguing. I don't really understand that technology, but this little go getter is sorta neat.

Not a bad looking bike. Might eat up sales from the 650GS, Versys and Vstrom.

Honda makes a VStrom! I see they injected just enough ugly. .. and the beak, it's got a beak, to make it a true adventure bike. ;)

The gas cap under the seat's gonna be a PITA when you're all loaded up, though.

Fuckin' ATV motors. Assembled and put together one of the NT700's when they came out. One of the most uninspiring engines evar.
