true enough, but lots of people thought............

that inline 4 cylinder concept won't take off (it developed the std for the ujm for a generation)
that crazy goldwing concept, it won't go anywhere.
that dopey downsized goldwing - the st1100, what market could it have?

so the dn01, the fury, the rune, they may be misses, but they will change the landscape of the motorcycle industry as we know it.
