Default Honda DN-02

Honda don't give up, do they? After the total failure of the DN-01 (underpowered, expensive, weird styling, automatic transmission), they're trying again with the NM4 Vultus (underpowered, probably expensive, weird styling, automatic transmission).

http://newsroom.honda.co.uk/News/Hon...-Edge-e3c.aspx

Given that the DN-01 was probably the most unpopular bike that Honda have ever produced, what makes them think that this one will be any more successful?

I think I'm the only person that liked the look of the DN01 in pics and the flesh. Seen a couple in Spain a few years back. They knocked thousands off the price to shift them.

It might appeal to the US market, what with the forward placed pegs and reclined position....they do have some butt ugly bikes over there...
