Honda GB500 - Capo - 03-09-2014
The GB was, indeed, too early for the vintage craze of today. And probably a bit too mild. Wouldn't surprise me if Honda reacts to the one- lung revival in due course, particularly if the Yamaha SR takes off.

They would sell a gazillion of them. The GB was gorgeous, just two problems: it wasn't cheap and it was WAY ahead of the curve. You see them going for ridiculous prices these days.

I agree. I'd probably get one.

I've owned 3 400's.
Reliable as, but things that go wrong on them are:
Starter motor failure. No big deal,as the 400's had a kick start, not sure if the 500 does.

I was working in Africa when they came out so did not buy. I have always wanted on, but the price.
