idman Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 I was all set to buy a New Superscooter but when I was on a holiday in the U.S. I stopped by a local Honda motorbike shop in San Francisco in early June and lo and behold there were two new CTX,S. one with the Manuel tranny and the other with Auto tranny. Gorgeous bike, IMO, and the price for the model of my choice was a reasonable $8990.00. I did some checking later and found out these are made in Thailand. I checked at a few of the bigger Honda shops here in Surin and Buriram but they are useless and had no clue what I was referring to. Even attempting to show them the model on a website got me nowhere. My question is this, is this new motorbike now in the showrooms either in Bangkok or Pattata and what is the price here in Thailand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SumetCycle Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 Perhaps it will be released next year. If it is, it will only be sold out of Big Wing dealerships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bealus Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 Agree, gorgeous bike but as it has advanced technology, it's a pity it's not belt/shaft driven. Would attract even more customers IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BSJ Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 I know beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but that thing is ugly from any angle! I can't believe Honda made it.....and I can't believe anyone would buy it! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
