Seeing the redesigned side covers has me thinking about the evolution of these bikes. Looks like we are seeing an accelerated path of "improvement". Mechanically the list of things addressed is like a member of our forums is a spy for Honda. Looking at how the bikes of yore morphed into the sport bikes and plastic clad monstrosities of today, I hope they keep things looking less, lined up. The more they tighten the design, the less one can do to change it. Don't be too rigid, I guess. Some of the new Hondas look too horizontal for my tastes, and that matte gray one has me seeing a CTX700N...
