IT'S SPARKLY!!
Picture from the Chicago IMS. Metal-flake paint is significantly different than the previous reds.

I saw the '17 today at the IMS in Chicago. The bike was getting lots of positive attention! Prefer the previous tank style myself... Glad to see they had the faster (red) model on display.

I was hoping it was not metal flake, just metallic red. Metal flake to me looks like a basement painted chopper tank. Guess I will just have to wait and see it in real life.
It is bothers me too much, I know a good paint shop. Maybe a black base with burgundy accents and some tasteful pin stripping.

Honda must have watched the video of the owner who complained the instruments reflected the sun and blinded him going to work and back. Maybe a tinted wind screen was needed.

Because it's one of the few videos where they actually ride the bike.
Better than the other 30 videos of still shots set to annoying music.
