The GB500 is a homage to a number of vintage machines, not unlike the CB1100. Difference being that it is a tribute to old British thumpers, rather than the CB's reference points of various '70's Honda models. It does a great job of capturing the spirit, but not necessarily the glory, of AJS, Velocette, BSA and others. Here are a few shots of bikes that influenced the GB500, taken on one of my trips to the Isle of Man, along with one of the GB in repose.
