You've got a point there.
I wonder if they would have sold better or worse if they'd attempted to shape and paint the tanks like the original 69-70's 750s, the way that Kawasaki has put on a rounded tank and painted the last 2 years of the Z900RS to resemble the earlier Z1s. Of course 'retro' wasn't as much of thing back when the CB1100 first came out..
