I don't even know what to say....

Well, Honda has done it again. The next DN-01...2014 CTX700N Colors - Honda Powersports

Whadaya think?

 

Eh. Its OK. I don't like the pipe. I think
A. It needs to be the same flat black and
B. the line/angle of it seems off.

Not really my style overall, but not bad.

 

Yah not my bag either. They must have got a deal on some black paint eh?

 

A little funky but on track for the entry level target audience Honda and the rest seem to be after theses days.

 

Not my cup of Tea.......I am still waiting for the Transalp

 

BTW.........Jev thanks for up dating the insider photo. You are my hero :thumb:

 

It's nice to see Honda thinking outside of the box again.
Of all the new bikes though I would get the CB1100.

 

I think they hit it right on the cb1100 and the new cb500's. Not sure with this though.

Hey look, a motorcycle.

 

That is definitely not my style.. The newer Honda bikes/cars are too futuristic. It takes a lot to digest the style..

 

+1 If digestable at all.

 

I agree i dont like hondas new styling either. The cbr 600 i like and the improvements to the cbr 1000 sure helps. But who is asking for these scooter look a like bikes? It sure isnt me. But then again if it gets more people out there on bikes im all for it.

 

Everything forward of the seat is right on target. Modern/futuristic and mechanical looking.

From the seat back it looks like a scooter.

It's almost as if two different comittees worked on the stying, it's not unified or flowing.

Never been into Cruiser style bikes. Saying that though, it looks like a cruiser, but then again so does a Virago 250. But Honda is certainly cashing in on a motor that started life as a scooter & there is nothing wrong with a 600cc twin. Honda knows there is a growing market for "Leaner Approved" motorcycles, no longer limited to 250cc (as in Australia), even Ducati has released a 659cc Monster (with an appropriate price tag!!) The Honda range is offering a great motor wrapped in a style & price that those who want a bit more panache than what a scooter offers with the added benefit of being able to take it for a decent haul on week ends. And once those that do get the taste, they will be upgrading.

 

this doesn't appeal to me at all. that being said, i think that headlight assy. would be pretty cool for a streetfighter project.

 

I agree about the headlight, but the rest looks to me like an amalgamation of a late 90's Knighthawk and the DN-01 and I don't see them selling enough to justify production. But I could be wrong.
It's probably fun to ride though.
