And another thing about it....
The bodywork is so high that you can't step through it, but have to swing your leg over, just like a bike. But instead of using that space for something useful like luggage space, (as on 750S / X) they give you a small dip in the bodywork that looks a bit like a scooter step-thru but isn't. Its just seems to demonstrate the muddled and non customer-orientated thinking that went into the whole project

Re: new integra 750 test
I agree with Mr Grumpy. The whole plot seems ill conceived, it's neither a scooter with all the attributes we love, or a motorcycle ditto the attributes. I can't see who the target audience are myself. But I am a glass is half empty sort of guy.

Re: new integra 750 test
There must be customers though,( as well as lyn on here) because nearly two years in they havnt dropped it, (like the dn01), theyve given it the same upgrade as the x and s model, and also an alloy swingarm,

Re: new integra 750 test
Only because they shat on the Deauville.
You watch, as soon as there's a new v-twin Dullsville with shaft drive, ABS-CBS and a DCT frugal motor, Integra is dead.
Until then, where is the adjustable screen, enclosed chain, and some thinking about where to put some storage... that fairing is crying out for a par of saddlebag-style, deep cubbyholes.
It's just lazy design, by people who don't care.
Think I'm wrong? Why does the Integra have no seat height or handlebar adjustment?

Re: new integra 750 test
Well, yes, if Honda did bring out such a thing! I might be interested myself! Not sure if they will though. However they could keep the V-twin engine and instead squeeze a little more grunt out of the existing engine. Or even doing a 750Xwith a decent fairing would provide an improved option.irev wrote:.

Or bring in the CTX 700/750 which they have "over the pond", while we just get the new big lump of the 1300.

Re: new integra 750 test
Can't see the point of that - the lower seat means they don't have the large helmet compartment of the 750S/X which is one of the main selling points!horobags wrote:Or bring in the CTX 700/750 which they have "over the pond", while we just get the new big lump of the 1300.

I've been pleased with my DEAUVILLE, no sign of any replacement yet.irev wrote:Only because they shat on the Deauville.
