I'd rather Honda bring back either the VTX1300 or VTX1800- or both. I can't see much advantage to weirding out with conventional technology

I don't mind the technology but I will certainly take the VTX models over the Rebel models. And those dark colours have to go. Bring back the reds, blues, whites and yellows.

I dont think the VTX1800 was ever made in Japan was it? I thought they were only made in the USA.

Never much saw the point of a VTX1300 when the 1800 was an option. The carb, single pin crank, lesser brakes, and other things just seem like too much of a downside without enough weight loss or money saved to be worth it IMO.

I like the pillion seat. Reminds me of the song, “50 Ways to Leave Your Lover.”

Hmm sorry but that is "butt ugly"

The bike is named for a different body part than you mentioned. Vultus is Latin for face.
Based on your post the bike should be named culo (Italian for butt) 😊
Or maybe combine the two together- culo vultus.

Late to the party, but that's a 2014 model, not 2024.

If you're looking for something similar in 2024 there's the Goldwing (also DCT):

I have noticed there seems to be a difference in attitude in Europe to motorcycles, than in Canada.
An example, in Europe, this time Italy. 165,000 attended the most recent bike races.
In Canada. We do not have a MotoGP event, resulting in zero people in attendance.

So whatever any motorcycle company would like to build, we do not account for much. As for the fugly bike shown, I would rather have an RE650, or a Triumph, or a Guzzi.

Have this bike. Love this bike. Don't know why people claim you have to lean forward.
This is a feet forward driving position with back support. Lean back and lounge while you drive.
