aharbi Posted February 17, 2013 Share #1 Posted February 17, 2013 Just got this from from Mama Yamaha: Less is More and I just ordered (last week) a Triumph Trophy SE but will keep the Venture, it's my wife's bike I just steer it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jfoster Posted February 17, 2013 Share #2 Posted February 17, 2013 The Triumph looks nice....the Yamaha video looks like a mid sized chain drive to keep with all the new chain drive 700's from Honda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carbon_One Posted February 17, 2013 Share #3 Posted February 17, 2013 Another V-twin most likely too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiCarl Posted February 17, 2013 Share #4 Posted February 17, 2013 Someone asked me at the IMS show what I thought would be coming out. At the time I had no idea. After that I saw the Honda CB1100. It's an 1100 in line 4 standard motorcycle. That tells me the marketing guys see a market for a large displacement standard. The few glimpses in the video look like a standard. My bet is they're building a standard around the FJR drive line. That'll be a 1300cc in line 4, fuel injected, shaft drive standard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yammer Dan Posted February 19, 2013 Share #12 Posted February 19, 2013 This is another year my pocketbook saves me from this problem. BUt my 1st Gens provide me with "Hang On" preformance and give me something to do. I really am not sure if I would buy a new one if I could. Warden tells me to get a new one and get rid of all the old junk!!!:duck:When Hardleys (and 2nd Gens) start outrunning "Brown Sugar" I will do that!!
