I love this bike. I saw it at the Cleveland motorcycle show last year and just keep thinking about it every time Hoblick posts about a bagger. LOL

[conn-e-rot]

That is badass

[bowdog]

Yes!!

[bacchus]

nononononoooooo

[magley64]

no thanks, I'd rather have a bike that can take a corner at greater than idle...

I like it!! The idea of a Sabre based bagger is great (even though the Interstate model already fills that role). Doubt I could afford the entrance fee though...lol. Still pretty sweet.

I'm pretty sure it's a Fury based bagger.

True, but really the Fury, Sabre, Stateline, and Interstate are all part of the new VT1300 series. I was just saying Sabre due to the huge front wheel, which I guess the Fury does have too. Potatoe/Potato. Actually after reading the article it says it was built from a Stateline...still pretty badass.

why not just buy a HD?

why not just buy a HD?

Because I like my oil in my bike and not on my driveway? I kid, I kid.

do not want

ha!

[JJKITTY]

No, but if you are giving away an old Triumph, let me know.

[Bad324]

in a heartbeat at the right price

Why?

I like it, but the 1300cc kills it for me. I'd take it away for free though.

sweet bike! saw it in person at the IMS last year..

i followed that bike before i saw it at IMS

really cool build

pictures do it better justice than in person.

i still would ride the shit out of it though.

but the motor is weak in it.

if you havent ridden a fury then you wouldnt know, but that motor is underpowered.

my harley has more power than the fury (yeah i know right)

add all that extra weight from the bags, fairing, etc the bike is even heavier, with no more power

plus the suspension would need upgraded for the extra weight.

still it is pretty bad ass looking

[Hoblick]

side not, honda would never put a bike that cool into production..

they are way to reserved, even though a bike like that would sell like crazy right now, even at a 17k price tag

What casper said, and I don't have a big enough closet for all those expensive tshirts

[magley64]

My own desire to purchase not withstanding, it is a pretty bike, I just have higher demands on what I ride because if how I like to ride.

If I couldn't twist the throttle and scream through the gears, and be honestly thrilled by the speed, I'd probably not ride near as much as I do now.

If I couldn't jam the right bar, and drop into a corner at speeds like I can with my bike, I'd probably not ride near as much as I do now.

If I couldn't kick the shifter 3 times and leave nearly everyone in my dust on the freeway, I probably wouldn't ride near as much as I do now...

It's pretty, but that's not enough for me...

Thats pretty wicked awesome for someone looking for a sleek metric cruiser. I wouldnt rock it but I know a few people who would love to. Its a pretty nice move by honda if you ask me.

[CBBaron]

Nope,

But it looks cool.
