Honda Japan seriously need to give Honda America the boot and get back to building exciting V4s, new Fireblades to compete with the best and that RCV roadbike.
I have a good friend who works with Honda UK and he loves his sportsbikes and reckons Honda America have far too much say in the future of the company which is why they build very little of interest to the likes of you and me.... and him.

Sadly it'll prolly go down well with the commuter crowd...and perhaps rightly so...North America is heavily split when it comes to the cruiser vs. sportbike thing....and perhaps rightly so...most of the freeways round here are old, and the concrete rain grooves will eat a sportbike tyre in no time.
