So when is this supposed bike going to appear then?

Rumours around say it's in production but nothing
definate, with the V5 and shaft drive and some fancy
button gear change.

I might just have to trade the Sprint ST in for one.

It's a Honda. Who cares?

It'll have a stupid "stepped" seat putting the pillion's head up high
into turbulence and be styled like a sports bike, and so useless for 2-
up touring.

Thats ok, I have had Honda's since 98, VTR1000, 5 different Blade's, SP1 and
a VFR800, all have been faultless and fun.

This here Sprint ST from March is ok, gearbox is clunky, but prefer
Honda's, hence asking when and if it was going to be on sale.

As soon as you receive a letter that starts:

"Dear Alan,

Congratulations on winning a new VFR1000GT...
"
