Honda has announced its classically-styled VT750S is now available from dealerships.
The new model, priced at £5,845, could appeal to bike insurance policyholders on a budget.
With its striking appearance resembling a classic naked street motorcycle from the 1960s and 1970s, the model is sure to turn heads.
Retro styling is combined with sleek metallic grey colouring and while the liquid-cooled, V-twin 745cc engine gives a modern performance, it bears finned barrels for a vintage air-cooled look.
Honda suggests the model caters for all level of rider with its comfortable riding position and "great all-round manageable performance".
Fuel economy is efficient and CO2 emissions from the model are low, partly as a result of the vehicle being light and compact.
According to Honda, the bike's twin exhausts, wire-spoked wheels, upright riding position, teardrop tank and chrome finished headlight "hint to a bygone age of motorcycling, but now brought right up to date".
Among the model's other features are a steel double cradle design frame and a 19-inch front and 16-inch rear wheel to aid feedback and neutral handling.
Earlier this month, Honda also launched its PCX scooter as the epitome of comfort, style, practicality and economy.
