I have an early (1985) SRX600 and now they come out with a XSR model. A simple sole like me is likely to get confused  :\ .
I guess the new bike looks nice if that's your cup of tea.

It's a good looking bike for a modern retro. It'd have to be one for my 'millionaires garage' though.
Stop polishing it and ride the bloody thing!!

bloody ugly.look like something out of mad max.
they wont sell that many.only short sighted folks will buy or those who are a pound or two short in the grey matter  better known as the brain.
If I wanted to make a life-long career out of
working with the mentally retarded I would
have opened a Harley Davidson Dealership!

Honda riders opinions are not valued ;)

and matters relating to aesthetics and beauty cannot be taken from an NC700 rider

and even if opinions of NC700 riders were validated on matters of beauty.....certainly not those with Susan Boyle avatars :b :nana
