Honda has trickled some info on their 2011 lineup, and I've gotta say there's not a whole lot of fresh product flowing in from Japan... at least, yet.
Of the twelve bikes confirmed for '11 so far, only the PCX scooter I reviewed a few months ago is all-new. In other news, the CRF250R and CRF450R motocross bikes receive a few mechanical updates, but apart from the Shadow RS's sweet new retro paint job (seen here, which is reminiscent of the 25th Anniversary VFR's red, white, and blue color scheme), we'll have to stay tuned for notable 2011 model releases from Honda.
To see what they've got brewing so far, take a look at this 2011 Honda Motorcycles Buyer's Guide, which will get updated with additional info as it becomes available.

I don’t think any motorcycle manufacture is doing much in the way of new models in this economy. I sure they are just trying to play it safe, probably a good move right now.
Hey Joe,
Not everyone’s holding back (and maybe even Honda will pull something out of their sleeves in the coming months… I hope.)
Yamaha just unveiled three new-for-2011 models: the Stryker (a 1,300 v-twin-powered chopper), the Super Tenere, and the FZ8… I’m working on photo galleries as I type this, and you’ll at least see a Stryker gallery later today.

Good to hear not everyone is holding back. I’m looking forward at seeing the new Yamaha’s on here. Thanks Basem.
Just a reminder to everyone reading this article, Last year Honda redesigned their VTX line up with some pretty neat bikes, The 2010 Sabre, stateline, Interstate and fury…
