you'd actually just about have what many belive the cb1100 should have been. classic styling with modern power.

if you want fins, just wait until the first Electric CB comes out. it'll have nice big fins on the battery :-p.

I like the styling. If I was in the market for this kind of bike, I would be looking at the Honda over any of it's competition. However, I would have to ride it before buying it. I'd be concerned about the power numbers on paper, but would want to see/feel what real-world performance was like. I have a feeling that this bike has more power than nearly anyone reading this could ever use, but I'd want to ride it a bit before I committed. I'm not in the market for this bike: I need something that I can ride on a 300+ mile day and that handles well enough on the back roads once I get there - Honda CB1100.

That dyno chart is a serious bummer.
