Probably (but not definitely) it has been price-pointed as though its main competitor is the Yamaha T-Max. The new retail price is exactly the same, £9599.

My guess is that it is aimed more at mainland European countries where maxi scooters are hugely popular and the T Max currently rules the roost.

Nearly £10k! That's half the price of my Subaru BRZ new.

I tell you who will be buying one. Not me that's who.

Nearly £10k is what a whole load of buyers in mainland Europe pay for a new T Max every year.

There is a market for the X ADV, but it doesn't include you. It doesn't include me either.

Did one of you nuts photoshop that PCX? I'm confused

I would certainly take that X ADV if it were available to me.

I'll be on Honda's mailing list (should there be one) for news/updates. Like the 2011 PCX, I'll be first to see/sit on it. Then if All goes right, a deal will be made. In the meantime, I Save me $$ while it strikes a pose on my iPad's home screen

No, I won't be doing that!

I really want that! Hell I would even enjoy the stock windscreen on that little spit fire.

You are killing me... why only limey's get this AWESOME scooter?

No one in the USA will pay $13,000 for that bike. The NC700X has sold very slowly at $7,700.

One would have to REALLY love a high tech luxury scooter. Now that I read what I just wrote... you're right, we will never see that shipped here.

Noooooooo......don't say that!
There's always the Zero, heh Sendler? We know that (and Electric) costs a bit too.
Aw heck, I'm Still saving!!

Honda will no doubt look at the sales figures for the Yamaha T Max at the same price point.

Yamaha sell thousands of these each year in Europe, but I believe that the USA run was two years maximum before it was pulled through poor sales.

An extra £500 for the optional footpegs LOL

So it's Not tangible (in the USA), but we can watch

Does anyone have one.... YET?
I Want One! C'mon Honda, ship that baby over here!
This is... one... diversified...bike. Go on! watch "her" roll thru the best of it



Adding some flavor....the "her" part (but I have no idea what "her" is saying

That is funny!! Did you tell him you'll be happy to receive one? The year it arrives, of course

He's quite used to strange vehicles arriving in the garage unannounced, as am I. No X-ADV yet, though.
