Top 10 Hottest Bikes for 2011 (custom, bike, motor, Japanese)

[KoobleKar]

Now that Germany’s Intermot show and Italy’s EICMA exhibition are over, we’ve got a clear idea of the motorcycles that will be introduced over the next 12 months. Although the number of new models isn’t as large as we’re accustomed to seeing at this time of the year, the sheer diversity of new bikes is inspiring.

This crop of 2011 and 2012 offerings shows an almost unparalleled variety and further category fracturing and blending. We’re on tap to receive three cool entry-level, small-displacement sportbikes, an Italian power cruiser, a bleeding-edge Japanese literbike and the first inline 6-cylinder motorcycle engine we’ve seen in decades, among many other noteworthy machines.
For this article, we’ve whittled down a list of our 10 most anticipated bikes we’ll see in 2011. In alphabetical order…

I'd take the 6 cylinder BMW. That Kawasaki looks sweet though.

The most anticpated bike in my circle is the new Honda Gold Wing which should be introduced in June or so.
It should be a new generation but in typical Honda fashion it is a WELL kept secret.
