I've come to the conclusion that Honda has a plan to revise what we have come to think of typical classifications, i.e. cruisers, touring, standards, and yes - even scooters by blending styling cues from each type or style. We (I include myself) may find several of these examples odd and ugly, but, Honda has revolutionized motorcycling on a number of times in the past. Accepting they are capable of doing it again, I'll wait and see. There will either be a new revolution - or - many cheaply priced leftovers in the upcoming years.
