Honda Adventure bike concept based on the 1200 VFR. Looks terrible, but can't help but notice the similarity to the Multistrada.

Looks a bit heavy to me ( I said LOOKS, not IS) like it has what we call in the medical world 'a Pedulous Abdomen'. Yet another way for a doctor to be absolutely and undeniably correct, yet make you feel terrible, embarrassed, and wronged all at the same time. This thing just doesn't look like it would fit the bill for spirited riding of any kind.

i dont care if you have been a mechanic for 10 years doing something for a long time does not make you good at it, take my gf for an example shes been walking for 28 years and still manages to fall over all the time.

I think it fits perfectly into the Adventure Touring segment. Bmw GS looks with Honda reliability and hopefully price. Nice!

Besides the CBR250, is Honda offering anything interesting this year?

A touring bike that never breaks down and can run for days with out a drop of oil or water. May come in handy.

Gawd damn that thing is ugly!
No bikes in this segment are sexy, but C'MON HONDA!!!
Sad, because the 800 V4 is a great motor.

this theoretical adventure-tourer would use the same 1,237 cc V4 power plant and dual clutch transmission packaged with crash bars, hand guards, a taller windscreen and aluminum panniers.

This will be an unpopular comment but I don't think it's any uglier than the new Multi. All the bikes in this "class" aren't exactly pretty. It's no worse than a GS, V-Strom, etc.

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."
CONFIDENCE: the feeling you have right before you understand the situation.
