The CB1100 nicely complements my 1989 GB500. Although I hope the CB does better in the US market than the GB did! I did not include the '80 CX500 in the shot...it doesn't fit the billing...but if I ever get around to cafe-ing it I'll allow it to participate in the next photo shoot.
As much of a Brit bike enthusiast as I am, the Hondas better capture my actual motorcycling passion from the '70's when the CB750 and Kawasaki Z1 pictures adorned my wall. And they are just beautifully built and great to ride. I'm not getting this 'lack of soul/ character' thing that others claim, and I'm happy with the balance of Brit and Japanese in my stable.
