The old will they won't they argument eh !!!!!!!
My opinion is that HONDA have already invested a huge amount in the new
and it will probably be around by the end of this year or early next. And if it is V-tec then it will be done right 'cos Honda won't release any system that isn't. My only concern with V-tec is the service costs. For folk like us that need servicing at least twice a year because we ride our bikes (not like the Sunday school bikers) the cost of servicing a V-tec is HUGE. Ask any VFR rider how much an 8000 and 16000 mile service is
Demontat may be right too 'cos it may not be called a blackbird or
but a new bike it is, and may have a new name to suit.
Valid points made in the posts above but don't forget - just because a new totally revamped version (or similar) comes out doesn't mean that our versions (whatever they are carbed/injected/cats up the cans etc etc) have suddenly become crap. Our bikes are fantastic and nothing will change that fact. If something is as good as this now it will still be this good whether a new one comes out or not.
Rant over.
