Why are the sitting? I bought one because I have a passion for the Honda air cooled four. It was still a struggle. If that Victory Kingpin I was looking at was a couple of grand cheaper my CB would not be mine and I would be riding a Kingpin to the Smokies.
So, I guess the answer might be there are fewer of us with a passion for this design and there are more competitive bikes out there and so the CB is really just one of many great bikes for sale and not the only one worth having, like the CB750 was when it was introduced and was the great superbike with no peer for a while.
This means we who have a passion for the bike are lucky we can get one for a great price and if we get tired of it we have options unlike how it was in old CB750 days so it's all good! Amazing so! Even a Harley is an option nowadays when back then it was a leaking piece of crap compared to the CBs IMO. Pretty sure that was the case, I remember it that way.
