Subject: New Twin ??


Hello Everybody,

A few months ago there was a little discussion wether there will come a new Twin or not, and if so, when it will be showed.
Today I spoke to my dealer and here is what he told me:


The dealer was a little bit angry because a few customers went to buy other brands of bikes because Honda has no news.
Therefore he lost a few customers.
So he called Honda Netherlands.
There he asked what will happen this year, because they told him some months ago that Honda has big plans for his 50th aniversary...
But there is still no news at the horizon.
The answer given by Honda Netherlands is that Honda isn't 50 yet...Honda is only 49,5 years old.

This answer and the fact that Honda started on 24 September 1948, can realy mean that we still have to wait a few months for news from Honda.
If there is gonna come a new Twin, isn't told by the guy from Honda.
But there seems to be a new 400cc Honda 'crosser' ready....

It is strange that a big company keeps so quiet about new bikes.
They realy do loose customers now.....




Greetings from The Netherlands,
Raymond Fels.
