I'm puzzled that Honda has not engineered an all new bike to compete with the BMW GS. This is a huge market segment for BMW and sales of "adventure" bikes continue to be strong. A new V twin of 1000 to 1200cc in a light weight frame could be a big seller. Their Euro only Cross-Tourer is too heavy for any real off road duty at better than 600lbs. Get the weight down to that of the new V-strom but with better suspension and useful off road capability.
