Somewhat off topic but still relevant....Interesting approaches to marketing. Yamaha puts in a 942cc motor and rounds UP and calls it a 950. The CB's plant is an 1140cc and Honda Rounds DOWN to 1100. Maybe Honda was worried about the heat they would take for the lack of HP their 1150 puts out? Either to me is an acceptable marketing approach. Contrast that with the Suzuki King Quad which has a 722cc motor but is sold as a 750. That's just false advertising all around. It's either a 700cc or a 725, but certainly not a 750.
