Honda and BMW both detune air cooled motors as a way to keep in compliance, which is one reason the CB1100 engine is only 9.5:1 compression @ 85 BHP.

Honda will continue to make the CB1100 model so long as it's profitable. Many dealers don't know how to sell them.

Air-cooled engines remain on current model of HD's, H's K's, Y's, S's, and will not die off any faster than water-cooled.

The genuine challenge to all motorcycle manufacturers of internal combustion engines remains electricity.

Despite BMW not scoring very well in the recent Consumers Report article, unit sales are up about 16% YOY.
