Overall I like this bike, but I would have liked a tail end like the 80′s 750,900, and 1100F. Kawasaki made a retro bike as a tribute to the 80′s GPZ/KZ bikes and they kept the design true to the old bikes, but updated the air cooled inline four to a liquid cooled. I wish honda would have done this with the new 1100. I have a 1982 CB900F and it makes 89 HP stock. I am disappointed with the power in the new CB1100. I guess a guy can buy it and modify it big time. A good header and jetting should make a world of difference. Not sure if I would buy one, but overall it looks nice.

I will be seriously considering one once I see it (in Aus) – it is begging for customisation and I think it would make an awesome street tracker with a few cuts here and there

P.S. I much prefer Honda’s own version of this bike than Mugen’s as represented above.

I like it, …many of those above who don’t like it probably think the Sheene Icon bike with it “Insect superbike look” design is beautiful, yech!! Not everyone wants or likes “superbike” looking bikes with their high pointy rear fenders, yeck!

99% of bikes being built for the last twenty years all look alike, …. they all look like insect or transformers inspired superbikes. (except for the ubiquitous ugly Japanese V=Twin cruisers).

Thankfully a few companies like Triumph, Moto Guzzi and now Honda are once again building “standards”. Not everyone fantasizes about being a Rossi…………..
