Don't think it's for me but interesting to see what other makes are coming out with.

I would like to give it a spin just to see how it feels.

That thing is down right ugly. Looks like the fairing and gas tank is one piece.

Watch out if you install Highway Pegs your legs go right past the exhaust header,

 

Oops sorry I just noticed they took care of that as there is no place to mount the highway pegs....

Appears to answer a question nobody asked.......

I agree. Might as well slap a Victory badge one it.

Nah. At least the Victory looks good! This seems to be another addition to their "scooter look" line of bikes.

A Victory that looks good?

They have a new model?

I would think, that just refined the 1200 goldwing engine, from the 80's, they produced an awesome engine then. capable of reaching mileages in the 300K range. I was on my way there, when I hit the deer. 237, 891.8 miles:thumbsup2::bowdown:

When I 1st looked at it the motor reminded me of a Moto Guzzi. I'll bet it is a spinoff of the DN1 that Honda introduced a few years back.

I want it. I want it really, really bad. That is one bad @$$ machine.

Moto Guzzi has a bike that looks a lot like this one. But it's not for me.

[RandyR]

I kinda like it. But if I buy another new bike it will be in the 750cc-900c range and under 600lbs.

 

I would have bought a Honda ST once upon a time if my 28" inseam legs could have reached the ground.

[motorcycle_1300]

although I don't care for the looks, I do like that Honda is at least trying to release something innovative in the 1300 size range. I always hoped Yamaha would develop a luxury touring bike from the FJR engine, along the same appearance as the Venture.
