Honda Confirms V4, Shaft-Drive Crosstourer Going Into Production

Honda continues its V4 onslaught by confirming the concept Crosstourer we told you about in November of last year will enter production featuring the sweet drivetrain from the VFR1200F we tested back in June of last year.  Apparently, Honda’s DCT transmission will be an option, just as it is on the VFR.
These photos are of the concept unveiled last year, but we understand the production model will look almost identical.  Details are apparently forthcoming at EICMA next month, but here is a brief quote from Honda Project Leader Yosuke Hasegawa: “The Crosstourer offers a high-level fusion of vibrant off-road styling, upright riding position, V4 engine power and Dual Clutch Transmission that offers more direct power transmission and easy operation. We are convinced that we have successfully brought out new value in what can be termed the true Crossover Concept.”
