7-speed DCT transmission ... hopefully the last two are overdrives. Otherwise the engine looks like the EVO-6 concept from 2014.

I like it as much as I see of it. I might be game by the time 2020 rolls around with a couple of years to see how it unfolds.

I like the look. And....as I have recently purchased a '15, I am sure that Honda is feverishly working around the clock to compleatly change the look of the bike in order to make the value of mine go into the toilet. Why? Because that is the way my luck always works.
HOWEVER....with all of that being said, I'd not hold my breath on this version. I have seen this picture in it's various guises for several years now. Each time it was touted to be the next model year out...and it has yet to actually see the light of day.
I suspect that this is actually only a photo of some unnamed concept bike.

Plus if they've raised the ride height as well, I'm definitely in!

Our 4th is overdrive? What is the definition of overdrive? (seriously, I don't know)
If you are not part of the solution, YOU are the problem.
Where the people fear the government you have tyranny. Where the government fears the people you have liberty.
4th & 5th. That's what the senior mech at Russelville told me.
Overdrive: When the system "output shaft" is spinning faster than the "input shaft."
Overdrive on a VTwin transmission and overdrive on a shaft drive transmission are VERY different animals because on a shaft drive bike, there is another gearbox (rear end differential) to lower the RPMs.
Whereas on a typical VTwin design, that transmission output shaft is spinning the belt to the rear wheel.
Hope this helps,
Steve
