Who Had a CB750

Do you think if Honda had stuck closer to the originals, they would have sold, even tho I love the latest styling.
Your 2000 model looks closer to todays models, but the older 70, s were just perfection to look at and ride.
My old friend of 50yrs came to have a look at the new bike, he loves it to bits, got a feeling there will be two of us in our area soon.

I love the fact that Honda did not attempt to recreate any one particular model with the CB1100. I really like the early 70's CBs, and if I wanted a bike that looked just like that, I'd buy an original. I also happen to dig the CB750F, CB900F and CB1100F models from the early 80's as well. Much like these older designs, the CB1100 appeals to me in similar, yet different ways. To me, it stands out as its own machine, and that is the beauty of its design.

Another great thing about the 70's era CB750s is that Honda sold a lot of them and they are still fairly easy to find, although it is getting harder and harder to find examples that haven't been cafe'd or ratted out. The later super sport models are a bit harder to locate.
