Motorcycle Press Manager Bill Savino was excited to reveal new additions to the Honda lineup including the DN-01. “The 2009 DN-01 enters our market as literally a class of one; there is nothing else like it in the USA,” boasted Savino before adding, “And we've added a Motard-style CRF230M to the line.” In addition to the futuristic looking DN-01 which offers an automatic transmission and a sporty urban motard, Honda has made changes to the best-selling luxury touring motorcycle in the world, the Gold Wing. The Gold Wing 1800 will now offer a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) and XM radio. Continuing this theme of updating already successful nameplates, both the CBR600RR and CBR1000RR will be available with electronic Combined Anti Lock Brake systems.
