Beginning of September Honda America has made a smart move in the direction of medium power touring bikes, when announcing the introduction of the all new NT700V, in other parts of the world since over a decade also known as Deauville. This babe has everything I need: It's made for touring as well as for commuting, just look at the panniers. It comes with a comfy low seating position, just enough fairings and an adjustable windshield, has a shaft drive and ABS. The only downside is the relatively high weight. Have they used heavy metal to build this thing? 562lbs or 255kg curb weight is way too much. I wonder if it will be available also in Canada?
If this bike would ever be mine, I would get her some Hepco-Becker engine guards/crash bars to prolong the shelf life of the fairings, though.
