    These forum sleuths are present in every motor sport. Check the snowmobile forums in late winter before the next model year sleds come out.

    While I hope these changes are true, I will believe it when I see it.

    I have mentioned that I bought a brand new Honda 30 hp outboard motor in September 2000.
    And I'll bet that it still starts and runs like the day you bought it...

    By the tone of the narrative this "appears" to be just cut-n-paste from some facebook post or a circulating email posing as news. I will gladly by the drinks if it's genuine.

    If you went out and bought a 2017 30 hp outboard, it would be exactly the same other than an updated tiller handle, decals, and automatic choke.

    The Gold Wing is basically unchanged during the same stretch.
    Agreed. The reason I have an FJR in my garage is that Honda hasn't updated the ST. Ever.
