The conservative ladies dont know how to have fun... hondas recent line up is painfully practical. great mileage, easy to ride and they have excitment and style like a sweater vest.

Spot on! Honda makes great bikes lately but they fail to inspire, enpassion and enthrall !

They are already on the BAND WAGON!!!! A FEW YEARS AGO WE WERE DESPERATELY IMAGINING A DAY WHEN THERE WOULD BE SOMETHING ON THE MARKET BESIDES THE PREGEN AND 1ST GEN> now everyone is in the game!

asking for a small bike 4cyl is getting greedy. It would inflate the costs and never make its own niche because lets be honest.___ CHEAP RULES ___ with the small displacement.

They're so far out of the game it's crazy. The only bike that seems to have a ton of interest is the honda grom, of all things!
KEEP YOUR 08 --- sometimes you have to know when you have it good. Newer is not always better!

and the GROM is a real WIN for Honda in the U.S.

It wont make a bunch of money but it will intro new riders in a non threatening way... as well as inspire all the long time riders to get a little freaky play bike and live that mini hooligan life

but alas the GROM is old news else where in this big world.
The US is the biggest Recreational vehicle market and luxury motorcycles with our Race reps and big displacement cruisers but the most bikes are real transportation in the rest of the world.
