He had to be on some pretty spectacular drugs to design that bike, chain drive, minimum amount of gas, and no legs for any distance running. It just plain doesn't look like it would be a comfortable bike for any old guy, looks to much like someone rocketed in from another planet with that thing, I will stick with the "B"
I like it. It has floorboards. Looks comfy. Look forward to swinging a leg over one soon and trying it out.
I wonder if it needs valve adjustments? That was one of the nice things that I considered about my past Victory Vision; it didn't need ant valve adjustments.

I kind of like it for what it is, but I'd never want it for myself. Way too small. Seems like a decent bike for someone new to motorcycles. A few months back, I was considering it for my wife.

Looks too much like a scooter, but look at the mirror placement I've said it before the mirrors look right at your arms. You have to lift your arms to see behind you.

When on the other forums, everybody gets in a tissy because Honda builds all of these "odd, strange, ugly, futuristic, small size engines" and they go on and on about how they would never be caught dead on one. This is one along with the DN01, some of the scooters and a few others. When the truth is that America makes up a fraction of motorcycle sales when you consider how large Honda has become. Look at the population of the planet and this is considered cool and cutting edge in places like China, India and a lot of other countries that aren't into big engines and classic styling. The marketing for this is directly pointed there.
Remember disco is still big in Europe and David Hassellholf is an entertainment god in some countries. The world does not always think the same as the US.
