| Yes, you read right! Supposedly Honda is bringing an updated Swing scooter to the market next year! It looks very sweet. Two questions I have:
1. Will it come to the US? sigh 2. Will it have a real cruise control?
If those are yes I might trade my 2012 in on it!!! LOL
Take a look:

| I would agree- the header over the bike says Hilver Wing, so there’s that. The main issue is that (I guess) the scooter market isn’t too big here in the US. For several years they were building X-ADV 750’s and Forza 750’s. I would love to have those options. I still ride the ST1100s I have as well as the SilverWing, so it’s nice to have choices. I just get a little concerned as I get older to get something a little lighter and more weight manageable. I really like the SWing and it would be nice to see if they would import a new model of it here in the US. Weight wise, the SWing seems rather light compared to the STs. |

| Agree the SWing feels light compared to the ST11s..I had 3 of those. Gave them up because I could no longer handle the weight.. |

| A fake video obviously, what I don't understand is why anyone goes to the effort of creating them. |

| This video also appeared here in Portugal, but obviously it is fake, as well as others including a new Honda PCX 125.
From what I've read in some comments on Facebook, these videos were created with the help of artificial intelligence.

| Looks like a fake. The bike at the beginning of he video shows no step through, the one later on seems to have a bit of a step through.
Too bad, I was hoping that it was true that honda was bringing this scooter back. |

| Isn't it simpler just to wait and see what new maxi scooters are shown at the annual European trade shows in the next few weeks. You can find video clips of what certain maxi scooters could look like for 2025 but it's simpler to wait and see.
Honda may well use the Silver Wing name again on a new motorcycle or maxi scooter. Back in the early days of silverwing600 you'd get the odd simple soul mistakenly coming on here and going on about their old CX500/CX650 motorcycle based Silver Wing.

| It seems to be A I doing most of the voices on clips I watch on YouTube.
Some are on Rock Trivia Facts, there was one a couple of days ago which stated many years ago Fleetwood Mac singer Stevie Nicks had turned down a marriage proposal from Star Trek's William Shatner.
The reason, Stevie didn't want the married name of Stevie Shatner-Nicks. |

| I guess I was just hoping that Honda would modernize our beloved Silver Wing! |

| Honda might argue the Forza 750 is the new Silverwing. |

| How many vehicles can you think of, that manufacture's brought back as a discontinued favorite? Not many. There was a reason they were discontinued. I'd guess that Honda would release the ADV or Forza 750's to the US market before it would resurrect the Silver Wing....just my $.02 |

| I think, too, that the Forza 350 is proving such an able machine - new engine and all. It's not quite the armchair the Silverwing is nor does it have the top speed but I find mine much more than adequate and a bike I can more easily wheel around. |

| Even if Honda does introduce a new Silver Wing maxi scooter sometime in the future, it's not assured that North America or the UK will import it.
When Honda introduced the newer SW-T 600 and 400 Silver Wing models in 2009 and 2010 in Europe, neither the US, Canada, or the UK imported it.
Honda UK was still selling the old FJS version right up until it was discontinued in 2016, 3 years after the FSC Silver Wing discontinued in the US and Canada. |
