Honda's Downward Style

So you thought when Honda made the Fury and the DN-01 that you'd seen about the ugliest fucking bikes you could imaging coming off a production line. Well... I've got bad news...

2010 Stateline

2010 Sabre

It's not all bad news from the design crew. They have designed this simple old school 750 called the RS. About the nicest cruiser I've seen from a Japanese company in a looong while. Probably since the W650 from Kawi.

  1. I like a clean engine, but those antenae handlebars??? Fuck... Even that 750's tank is a problem. Almost Guzzi-ish, but not enogh to make it cool. Speaking of strange Hondas, have you seen the Rune? It was actually a production bike too.

  2. I believe it's spelled Ruin. What a Boss Hogg piece of shit!

  3. I have to agree with ninja, i'm unoffended by the styling of the rs. im sure there are all kinds of dealer options for you to "customise" it. And then have it delivered you your door.

  4. They're about 10 years late on that band wagon, looks like someone caught a couple old re-runs of some Chopper Cable shows? Crap on a frame? Who the hell are they targeting, the guy who wanted to buy a 40K chopper a decade ago, but now can blow 20K after the economy took a bite out of his ass...
