Doesn't do it for me, looks like they found an engine an just chucked anything the found lying about at it. Including stuff from other factories, the tail looks very RSV4.

Honda need to do something. Their current range is bland as can be.

If they lose Marquez as well in 2019 they really will be up shitcreek.

I love the Idea of that bike and I know It's only a Computer generated Image....... but roll on 2019............ Would be great to see Honda producing a whole new range of V4's....... VFR400, 500, 750 1000 and a proper Blackbird replacement too.................. probably just wishful thinking though.

A new blackbird might be a possibility if Honda want to take on the Kawasaki H2SX

Honda's future directions are very heavily influenced by Honda North America which is why they build such shit bikes these days.

It really does need a side fairing.

Well, they go where the money is, you can't blame them for that....a lot of Japanese companies specifically aim themselves at the North American market.....it's frickin' huge compared to Western Europe.
You really think Honda are shit these days?....best they've ever been, IMO.

Personally, and speaking as a long term Honda Fan........ I think they are falling a bit behind on the excitement front....... similar to Suzuki............ but Yamaha and Kawasaki are wading in with lots of new and exciting new Bikes......... the way to go in my opinion.

Defo could do with a side fairing just to cover up the bits and pieces a lift but not too much...i personally quite like the design other than that
