I'm not especially fond of the styling but I'm probably not the intended customer. Interesting how they adopted the R1200GS / Ducati Scrambler rear "fender."

What I see is a bike that apparently is a whole lot faster and capable at the extreme sporting end than the CB1100 but a lot less practical in real world riding. Adorned with a number of styling cues that I wouldn't be able to get past. I do like the wheels though. As Long Ranger stated previous to my post I'm probably not the target demographic they're going after either.

I like the look. I guess there are some similarities between it and some other bikes, but it’s a pretty distinctive look and one that appeals to me. I’m going to send pics of this and the 300 to my 24yo son and see what he thinks of the styling. As a few others have said, Honda doesn’t really care if it appeals to the dad-bod set
