101 reasons why....There is no seventh gen VFR yet?

34) Honda is waiting for the VFR's 50th anv.

35) Honda has a 9,000 square foot warehouse still full of
800cc v-tech engines.

36) Honda has already purchased 10,000 gallons of "gloss"
white as a great "new" color for the same "old" VFR in
2010.

 

37) with all their engeneers lost Hond is waighting for some good ideas from the magazine articles.

 

# 38 Honda engineers are still trying to come up with a more complicated valve train than the v-tec but as yet are unsuccessful.:bs:

 

#39. The new, 7th gen motors are now being used to power hybrid cars in Japan. Honda can't keep up with production.

 

#40 Honda has become too narrow mindedly focused on the 600 sport bike and big bore cruiser markets.

 

#41 While Honda officials frequent the many VFR forums for ideas, they are distracted by some of the members Avatars and forget to read the posts.

#42 With features like a V-4 engine and single sided swingarm, 90% of the sportbike rider market is confused and defaults to GIXXXXXERS.

 

#50: All of the assigned engineers are having an affair with Madonna and cannot concentrate on their work.

#51: All of the Junior engineers are too busy watching Y2kviffer's Avatar and are, um, BUSY!

 

#52. Popularity of "hitler VFR clip" forced a rethink in desgn and release date. V5 thou dropped in favour of flat twin wieghing over 400lbs andmaking 39 Hp. will, however get a machine gun in lieu of VTEC .

 

53. Honda Rhythm & Development stuck in North Carolina trying too catch to next photo shoot of Jev's avatar.

54. Honda employees too busy trying make sense of Tiger Tiger.

55. Honda wasted too much man hours on trying too get a picture of Nozzle.

56. Honda executives fired when they couldn't tell what was bigger, Mt. Rainier or RVFR's ego.

 

57. Honda is superstitious about the number seven. They are working on an alternative number to overcome this obstacle. It's not easy, but they are inscrutable and will eventually prevail.

 

and the winner is....

i have erred on the side of humour in these picks, cos clearly the new VFR not appearing is a joke...
