angrygirafe Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 I’ve always thought Spyders where the ugliest “motorcycles” on the road. Today I was proved wrong. I don’t see that being anymore of a competition for the Niken than the normal Goldwing is for the normal Tracer. Waaaaaay different markets.

Salish900 Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 I hope the day never comes when my balance is so poor that I can't be on two wheels, but if it happens, I may entertain the notion of a 3 wheeler. It's the lean and g forces and agility of two wheels I love, even more than the being outside. Might as well go with a convertible Mazda Miata when I can't ride anymore! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, its really cool looking and as typical Honda, amazing technology in a concept design, but... whether it goes beyond concept and actually makes it to production is another thing. Like their other concept CB1100X, I am liking what I am seeing out of a normally reserved and 'conservative HONDA'. 1 ***2015 Candy Red FJ-09*** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No official announcement of any sort on a Honda owned website. Last I heard was that Honda was waiting for Yamaha Niken sales results in the marketplace to determine if there's a market for this in the US (especially since Goldwings are built in Ohio and this would potentially be using the same engine as Goldwings). 2019 Niken GT "Motorcycles - the brand is not important, the fact that you ride is."

Truth has absolutely NOTHING to do with content posted on the internet, attention gathering headlines and misleading information gather clicks... 🙄🤷♀️ This video and the 'rumor' of the CB1100X got my clicks... multiple clicks. 😄 ***2015 Candy Red FJ-09*** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
