Honda VFR1200F: the wait is nearly over

All will be revealed on October 8

Honda is only two days away from officially going public with its all-new technology-leading V-four powered VFR1200F.

The lead-up has been massive, with unofficial images, technical specifications and speculation surrounding this machine building to a crescendo over the last couple of months.

Of course, the Bikesales Network has got in on the act, starting with an overview of the technical wizardy behind the V-four, and then Honda helped us out by announcing that the machine will feature the world's first fully automatic motorcycle dual clutch transmission for large-displacement sportsbikes.

At 9.00pm (Australian eastern daylight saving time) this Thursday (October 8), all the rest of the puzzle will be filled in when Honda officially releases photography, films, animations, 360-degree views of each of the three colour options, short videos, downloads and technical specifications on the VFR1200F.

The Bikesales Network will be on the case as soon as the embargo is lifted, so get on-line for full details on Honda's new machine.

The VFR1200F is expected to go on sale in Australia in the first quarter of 2010, with pricing to be announced.
