DN-01 UPDATE

The DN-01 has been confirmed as a EU & UK model and UK dealers are currently taking deposits for February 08 delivery. The DN-01 is also confirmed on the Honda AU website as an Australian model. "Recommended retail to be confirmed; expected release date: second half of 2008."

The earliest any new bike would be available in the USA would be June 08 as a 2009 model but more likely it would be announced at the dealer meeting in October 08 and be on the showroom spring of 2009. However, many people suspect that the USA will never get this model as the guy running the motorcycle division of Honda America refuses to import many bikes including the Transalp which shares the same 680 engine as the DN-01.

Bike due AUSTRALIA in June/ July of '08 with a supposed price range $18-$20k
