I guess this is what a Honda Ruckus looks like when it gets all grown up. The Bulldog is a cool new concept bike unveiled by Honda at the Osaka Motorcycle show.

Powered by a 400cc DOHC inline twin, the Bulldog rides on 15-inch wheels, has a low center of gravity, and an appealing chunky/sturdy stance. The 28-inch seat height is low enough to allow almost anyone to plant their feet firmly while stopped, which, the idea goes, should make the Bulldog attractive to both new or occasional riders.

The concept behind the design (Honda always dreams up great names for these) is "Lovable Touring Partner"—suitably powerful while easy and engaging to ride.

Small racks are installed above the headlamps and behind the seat, and there's additional storage on either side of the fuel tank. While only a concept today, this one could find a receptive audience if it were to get the green light. Clearly, a lot of thought's been put into it.
