New Honda CBR1000-based nakedbike with integral gas mask

Now that I see it with a rider I don't think it looks all that bad.  Now if all they did was leave off that stupid clown nose off the front (and change the rear wheel to something slightly attractive) I think it'd look great  

I dig the headers' swoop, like the old school 450's

I like it boys and girls. :thumbsup:A reasonably "non-dumbed down" standard. I think some American riders have been asking for something like this and I hope Honda will bring it to U.S. shores in a coupla years.

I agree that people have been asking for a naked sportbike that isn't a profoundly dumbed down version of a retired generation of repli-racer.  Aprilla has heard the cry and offered the Tuono.  KTM offers the SuperDuke.  And now Honda seems to have offered their interpretation on the theme.

I like it.  In fact I took the time to write a snail mail letter to American Honda to request that the bike be brought here.  I hope a demand for the bike is noticed and that it is brought here in late '08 or early '09.  This is the naked bike that is most likely to tempt me into a purchase.  Bring on the temptation, Honda.

I actually like it. Thats the 1st time I have said that about any Honda in oh 6 years!
