Changes

The Honda VFR1200X Crosstourer touring enduro model was first introduced in 2010 at the EICMA Motorcycle Show and began mass production in 2012. The main reason for the creation of this motorcycle was the desire of Honda to compete with the top models in the Touring Enduro class - the BMW R1200GS, [[Yamaha_XT1200Z_Super_Tenere | Yamaha XT1200Z Super Tenere]] and Triumph Tiger Explorer. In addition, it was necessary to offer a more modern replacement [[Honda_XL1000V_Varadero | Honda XL1000V Varadero]].
