Honda reveals new motorcycles

Honda CTX1300Honda has been busy lately with leaked photos of a CTX crossover cruiser/tourer powered by an ST1300 V4, a six-speed Super Bol D’or CB1300S and a better-suspended CBR600RR.
The polarising design of the CTX aside, the prospect of this bike with some decent power has lips being licked all around the motorcycle world.
Pictures show something resembling a cross between an ST1300 and a GoldWing F6B.

It will be unveiled at the 43rd Tokyo Motor Show on November 20 along with a CB400 Super Four, CB400 Super Bol D’or and a DUNK 50cc scooter.
