bigdaddybane Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 I've always loved the Honda V4s. I'm not sure I'd swap a VFR 800 naked for an FZ-07 though. It's gonna weigh more and probably cost more too. Don't get me wrong though, it would be a stellar bike. Alright, check out the picture of the concept (I fixed it in my post) and tell me if that changes your mind. That bike looks amazing ... wondering if Honda will actually release this?

cmiller94 Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 I was having some trouble envisioning that, but that looks fantastic. V4 is the coolest engine configuration in my opinion. Have to see what everything looked like with pricing, weight, performance, etc, but I think I'd still probably take a Street Triple or an S1000R over it.

That doesn't make sense to me; the brand dna just isn't there, if you know what I mean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think there is any way Honda has ever gotten near this, unfortunately I know a lot of people tell me about the the Aprilia Tuono, which is a naked V4, but it is a bit too much IMHO (1100 cc and <30 MPG lol) and also, it is not Japanese 1 Dual headlights or deathhttp://fz07.org/thread/5384/albatrosscafes-galleryhttp://fz07.org/thread/5174/dual-headlight-upgrade-completed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh man!!! That looks freaking killer! ... but yea, that looks photo-shopped. It's also pretty unrefined in the transmission and braking department. I thought about a 2016 model for a hot minute but all it took was one test ride to convince that it was not the bike I was looking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firstyammerha Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 I'm always looking for something different and since I've never owned a European bike, probably a street triple next winter/spring. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Global Moderator mjh937 Posted April 2, 2017 Global Moderator Share Posted April 2, 2017 I'm always looking for something different and since I've never owned a European bike, probably a street triple next winter/spring. That new Street Triple looks fantastic. It will probably tend to reduce the value of the older models too, so it seems like a no lose proposition no matter what year you choose.

robbo10 Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 The new 660cc Triumph Street Triple interests me but I doubt I will make a change. This may be a UK only bike to suit (complicated) rider testing regime here. 1 Just do it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruizin Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 The new 660cc Triumph Street Triple interests me but I doubt I will make a change. This may be a UK only bike to suit (complicated) rider testing regime here. mark my word, if that new street triple RS comes to the USA, I will buy one. I like it more than the FZ-10, I like it more than any other bike made right now. Every detail of that new bike fits me just right and 121 hp is the sweet spot for me. The LCD screen looks like it should be on a high end Ducati. Every reviewer sings it's praises. And I love triples, the roar of a pissed off triple engine is something to behold. I own Yamaha forums. I love the mighty FZ's and FJ's. But my heart yearns for that new Triumph street triple RS. 5 Yamaha MT-10 ForumYamaha Tracer 900 Forum Yamaha Ténéré 700 Forum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

valvestem Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 i dont see anything on the market i want. i need a big fat hawg for touring w/ my lady, but i don't want the payment. so i just dump money into the fz07. its got all the power i'll ever need. it just needs to be touched up, made to look nice. i did swap bikes with an fz09 owner recently. i gotta admit its a fine motorcycle. i don't like the saddle, but everything else is really nice. Hi,,, need a hog ,, try cycletrader.. There are thousands of hogs for sale.. Used, new, etc. One for every budget,, not high priced like they used to be.
