yes, the honda 450R was there. so was the yzf450, the kfx, and suzuki 400. it was a private factory research observation type thing that i was invited to down here in San Diego. i had a chance to look, feel touch and drool over the new honda. i whent ahead and checked out evrything! i can safely, and confidently say that honda did it again! it was very intresting having all 4 bikes there at the same time to compare and contrast them to eachother. after i finished the first questionare, a second interviewer came and asked me specific questions about the bikes, and also asked wich one i liked the best....... of course you know what i said.anybody have any specific questions about the externals youd like to know, just ask me.

. there were some suits sitting from across the room watching very carefully. they never said a word nor moved the time i was there, almost kinda eirrie
. one thing i noticed on the exhaust was that it had a stainless silencer that was huge. kinda looked like an easily removable 10lbs. the front fenders are removable for racing, probably only takes minute and a half to take em off. the rear LED tail light was prety cool. it overall looked totally sharp! its definately something thats more appreciated once youre standing in front of it. wich the headlight isnt as bad as evryone pouts and cries about. it looked like it retains the same style dual round lights like the old 400, but with a diffrent outer bubled out front cover that kinda looks like it came from one of their street bikes. first thing that came to mind when i saw the front of it was the bat mobile for some reason
