Reviews

" After all, one is - if not great - accommodated comfortably on the Fun- travel machine, standard brings a formidable ABS with, and the well-known from the VFR V4 is also not bad. "

"With the Crossrunner Honda Motorcycle has delivered a more than convincing overall package. The engine provides more than enough power, even if it could be untenrum stronger. Along the way, Honda is the most pure fun machine. Super Handling while maintaining comfort. Thus, the Crossrunner is both comfortable and sporty. All it does it still not right. It is not a case for two- unless you let the luggage at home. "

"For a fun bike, the Crossrunner is too heavy, too spartan for a tourer, not enough off-road capability for an enduro, dressed up for a naked bike to. "
