To be fair I think it’s the likes of you Tev62 and Iamhero/Mr Darcy/Which bike/The bike show amongst a select few others that have done very good YouTube stuff to show what these bikes are about, in the real world as an owner. I agree most journo’s either don’t get it or just don’t care enough to be bothered and let’s be honest Honda don’t seem to do much to push their products. Unless it’s an AT or Goldwing. Be interesting to see how the bike press takes to the new Rebel 1100 when lockdown eases. I didn’t know the CB existed and I still don’t think I’ve seen another one out in the wild, even now. The pool of new and unregistered CB’s is fast shrinking in England and whilst there are plenty of pre-owned about I agree it’s a closed case. Euro 5 has killed it. Nostalgia has to be a big pull with the CB and probably today’s new Gen riders will not connect to its looks anyway.
