If that you tube clip was filmed in Australia Honda and the rider would be expecting a visit from the local traffic branch.
The add doesn't tell us much I had a Kawasaki 1000 when Iwas 18 that would do a 3rd gear burnout over a 100 meters long. If thats the best Honda can do they havn't come far in over 30 years.

MUSTA been a turbo then.
A way fun motor to ride!

Na just do a burnout holding it with the front brake till your at the redline in 3rd let the brake off and hang on. It'll be wild for a bit but hold it flat out and as you pick up speed every flick will be less. Before you know it your doing 140kph and the bitumen has caught up with the tyre. There you go 100 meter black line and worn out tyre absolutely worn out. Now for the dissclaimer (Mittzy) do not try this at home.

Is it a replacement for the ST1300?

Really - even on an airstrip?

No probably not on an air strip but they monitor YouTube and confiscate cars belonging to people who post clips of burnouts or racing if they can track them down.

........................ Is it a replacement for the ST1300?

Checked on the UK Honda site, CTX1300 is an 'all new' model - 2014 ST1300 also available.

CTX has the lowest seat height in the class - just right for inside-leg challenged people like me.

You guys must be smoking crack, the valk is a beautiful looking bike old and new not like the steve Wonder designed Rocket, the biggest mistake Honda ever made was discontinuing the Valk in the first place.

It was purple? It was plastic? It Is Fugly

Sorry - but this thing is seriously fugly!

Looks like a poofters bike

Rocket's bear claw looks really good compared to that "bear claw"
