The bike has air ride suspension with front and rear 6 inch max and 2.25 inch minimum adjustable suspension.It is a sharp looking bike that appears to me to have taken it's styling cues from the Cross country (fairing & bags)Vision rear end and kingpin front fender.I would be surprised to see honda build this bike as shown as they are very conservative.If they do I sure hope they put more motor in it than the weak azz 1300 |

I don't know. They DID give us the Honda Fury and they did actually manufacture a DN-01 (and those two bikes are certainly not conservative). I know a bigger engine would be a draw, but if they want to keep the cost down, the 1300 would be good enough. I see this is a great "canvas" to sell. This bike screams to be a trailer queen or something you have custom painted (lots of area to paint), lit up like a christmas tree, and brought to the local bike-night or other gatherings.
I like the air suspension. Good idea to make it USEABLE. only thing I would probably add from the factory would be an electronic control for the air suspension. Cause it looks freakin' sexy all lowered, but you don't want to hand pump it up, ride somewhere, let it all out, hand pump it up AGAIN before you leave and go home. It's designed to look cool and seeing you there with a hand pump doesn't scream "cool".

Princeton, IL | These young designers really have their fingers on the pulse of what looks good. I am sure if Honda ever decides to build it in some fashion or another it wil be well executed. Well done to the young gun and his creation. It is not hard to see who his inspirations are though! |
