    Damn it looks like a Yamaha.

    The CRF230L looked interesting though they've finally stuck a disc brake on the back. It would make a nice little adventure bike.

    I think I will buy the 600RR (disappointed with the looks). the extended back with the blinkers and plate does look very much like an R6

    Wouldn't it just!

    All I managed to find out today, was..... bugger all! - Apart from this possible photoshop of a possible, possibilty of a new VFR!

    All has been very quiet from Mr Honda recently. Ominously quiet. Possibly recovering from "that" CBR, in fact!

    What's happened to the golden wings they are all looking like badges on the tanks of Yamahas. Not that I've got anything against Yamahas but hey Hondas have got to keep their point of difference.

    Heres another pic. More of the front. I must say first impressions where ugly as. And I was liking the trend of the exhausts tucked up under the rear. Interesting reading on the exhaust patents here http://www.topspeed.com/motorcycles/...d-ar40718.html

    The Hondas are such a good all round bike. The 07 honda wasn't pretty but excepable, this, I dunno?? If Yamaha produce another sexy looking thou Honda could well loose some market share unless this out preforms all opposition by a large margin. Gonna have to take a hacksaw to that tail piece pretty quick!!

    PS never was a great fan of the looks of the VFR but that is a winner if its real.
