- MCN's 2009 longterm test fleet includes the unconventional-looking Honda DN-01. It's an automatic with cruiser geometry, a 680cc v-twin engine and shaft drive. So far so odd - but what's it like to ride? Watch the video to find out.

Ha vàsárok egy ilyen motort ,akkor azt magamnak veszem meg. Nem a kritikusoknak! 1 éve megvan már. Nekem tetszik.
seems like its comfortably easy to ride. i like it because it introduces new ideas to biking although i agree with the scooter look
screw all critics. I like this motorcycle. pity I can't afford it.
"It's quite high to justify". Totally and absolutely agree. Thums up.
I'd wish someone awesome enough could make a homemade Machine Decader out of this bike.
i'm italian and an africa twin owner,but i think that this bike is interesting,'cause like slayer said it's good to know that there's also an auto bike (in europe there is also the aprilia mana there's in america too?) that can be a good choice for people that get has some handicaps or just doesn't want a classic gear system
i love the idea of DN-01 but its front end is so heavy
What is the background music called?
Peg drag at 2:24 and I wonder what deceleration IS like being an automatic. But I bet you it's 100 times more comfortable than my 08 R1!!
what kind of realistic highway speeds can this thing reach?
looks like a very good bike. but i'd prefer it to have the traditional clutch lever rather than the plus and minus button to change gear when set to manual mode. but this bike is really cool. not a big fan with the low fairing as well.
Why would it have a clutch lever? It has hydraulic variable transmission and so there is no clutch??
It might be fun to ride. It would deffinately be different. Of course i like to ride scooters and motorcycles both.
You can put it on secuential and you just have to change up and down with automatic clutch.
i bet it sell though, i know alot women who want to ride but cant get the hand eye feet co ordinationation thing going so this would make it accesible
I like it. It's very cool and it must be very comfortable.
Nekem van. Kényelmes! 1100km 12óra hossz volt. Csak tankoltam . Annyit àlltam. 1x 30 perc pihenőt csinàltam.
Where is the tolerance of the past. We are all on two wheels so what is the difference. Biking since 1956. 86 different bikes and still riding . Just enjoy it
Crossed the USA twice, and Canada . They do have twisties I can assure you .
Just done 3000mls through the alpes and back. Nice bike and I would have one but not on its own as I would need the shift gears.

I would have to agree with you 100% I wouldnt get rid of my r1, i was just saying.
Weirdest machine ever but i would love to try it out
Damn! you drive in the wrong side of the street!
For me is so strange see you driving on the left side!
If one day I came in england i will crash at the first cross :-D
What about Vietnam?.
I *hate* all-digital dash displays. I want analog back!
still hate it?
I agree
he said 60 HP, not 60 MPH.
Is it a scooter?
I totally agree :)
i think the only good thing about this is probably that people with no left leg below the knee can have a fast ish bike eh?
I love this bike just for the looks....different...but the fucking price HELL NO.
i rather go with aprilia mana 850 gt.
Exactly what I did at the time. I read MCN's review of the Honda Dn01 but then I read about the Aprilia Mana and decided to buy one...... I'm now on my 2nd Aprilia Mana, an excellent and massively overlooked bike.
People buy scooters cause they don't want to mess around with shifting gears.
This wouldn't be so bad if it was half the price. At the price, it's ridiculous... it won't bring anyone new into biking and it's unlikely to garner many existing bikers. I thought Honda had learned from the Pacific Coast, but clearly no.
It looks like a scooter/motorcycle might as well put some nobley tyes on it and go off road as well....
Basically an elongated scooter 😂
It is clearly not a scooter; you are not sitting "inside" it, like you would on a scooter. But it sure looks weird.
purists will moan & groan, but automatic transmission motorcycles have a market, and are coming down the production line in ever greater numbers.
that said, yes - this model is overpriced & garish. but, it's a testbed. the chassis has redeeming value, just need to strip out all the plastic and turn this into a cruiser.
with Ridley going bankrupt, someone is going to step in and take over...
eeeeh.....como?
that is a scooter , mot a motorcycle!
60mph did you say? I really appreciate that this bike makes it easier for anyone to drive it, despite what the purists say, but only 60mph?
that is the biggest scooter I have ever seen. Would be cool if more people rode bikes, but most people drive cars and this just ends up being an over priced odity.
That's the perfect bike for people who don't like to ride you just sit there and go from point A to point B. I can see myself driving to my granchildren's house when I'm 80 in that ugly futuristic scooter.
its just a overpowered scooter
id still have an 08 r1 than this thing...:S
CBR1500XX
Make something the masses will actually WANT to buy! Stupid Honda... When was the last time Honda made anything to compete with the Hayabusa or the ZX14? Concourse? Oh wait! Bold new Graphics! I forgot...
Honda lost their way long time ago!...Agree with the ugly futuristic scooter comment...
sexy bike!
yeah i totally agree with you and i think its not real motorbike because its boring automatic shit
Where can I puke?
sexy bike
batman´s slow bike
@EpiDemic117 Stop being racist. you honestly think your doing the U.S a favor by playing into there hands of another.

ex pen sive
Worst review ever
remind me not to buy the honda dn-01.
that is the ugliest bike i have ever seen for real
Overpriced scooter!!
