The DN-01 is a peculiar concoction: two parts scooter; one part cruiser; and one part sportbike. And if you have to ride a scooterish motorcycle during Bike Week, this new Honda fits right in by standing apart, as we found out by cruising A1A and Main Street around Daytona last week.
Say what you will about purity, historical relevance, aesthetics or bling, riding during Bike Week is all about getting attention from fellow riders and bystanders. Trundling along down Main at a sub-walking pace on a Chevy V8-powered motorcycle makes no other sense. And in this respect, the DN holds its own in Daytona.
First seen in prototype form in late 2005 at the Tokyo Motor Show, the DN-01 (Dream New Concept 1) was described as a �comfortable sports cruiser.� Now having reached production, Honda calls the DN a �crossover.�Whatever you call it, the DN-01 (could we please have a name with some personality�?) makes a splash wherever it�s ridden. Its arresting design hurt some necks in Daytona, as it caused hundreds of neck-snapping double-takes.
