Default Honda DN-01 Concept

--An automatic cruiser? May not be the sportiest, but at least it isn't as dorky as a scooter/moped...


From the Tokyo Auto Show:
"Although Honda officials were unwilling to be drawn into discussion when questioned about whether this bike would go into production, it certainly looks more finished and grounded in the real world than most concept motorcycles. The DN-01 is a large automatic sports cruiser, powered by a 680cc V-twin engine and aimed at the lucrative older market. The “Human-Friendly Transmission” (HFT) is a variable hydraulic/mechanical system making the bike easy to operate while providing sporting ride quality."

For some reason, this design looks quite retro. It might be that im more used to seeing my neighbors Suzuki and her (yes a woman owns a super bike) friends Yamahas. This could be saying "we took a s2000 and threw in a auto" for future model sport cars, as the S2000 is the "motorcycle on 4 wheels".
