Well, they stopped importing the DLX three years ago. I'm not convinced they've achieved cult status yet. They may never achieve it. Or, they could become this decade's GB500 or W650: Only imported in limited numbers, not a great seller, but now relatively desirable due to styling and nostalgia.
My CB50R was only imported as a 2004 model and only 300 were brought to the U.S. Like the CB1100, it was a nod to Honda heritage and did not appeal to the mainstream market. Very few have heard of the bike, let alone seen one. If mine were for sale, I'd be fortunate to get half of what I paid for it. And it's stil brand new, never started, gassed up, or even sat on.
