I gotta tell you guys that I am somewhat disappointed in Honda,as I can not find ANY road tests done on the 1300 by any independent motorcycle magazine like the other manufactures have conducted on their new models, other then what Honda, themselves, has shown us in their advertisements.Hence I have to wonder WHY?? I mean,it's not like I haven't been lookin for em,cause I have.But I have noticed that just about all of the other MC manufacturers have had road tests conducted by the motorcycle magazines on their new models.And even though we have read and heard good things about the CTX,it's only what Honda has told us.What's that old saying?? ["when something sounds to good to be true,it usually is"] So,until I see a road test conducted by one or more of the motorcycle magazine companies,as they usually give ya a pretty good heads up on the pro's and con's of new models,I'm not gonna get my hopes up. I wanna SEE one of these reports "BEFORE" I make any commitments.And I suspect,there are other gentlemen who feel the same way.After all,we are talking $16000 USD,plus,here.Whadaya think?? Dave!!!

Now it seems to me,and I could be wrong,but in the past,when a new model was first introduced,the MC magazine people were usually right there to test em before they hit the dealerships,then report their findings in their magazine articles so anybody interested in one, could read about it and make a decision as to whether or not they still wanna buy one of those models,and or compare it to another make/model they may be interested in.And I've been reading about some of the new models that weren't available to the public as of press time,yet had already been road tested and commented on in MC magazine articles.So again,the question "WHY" hasn't the CTX1300 been tested by the MC magazine people??? Doesn't that make ya wonder?? It does me!! Dave!!!
