There's been a lot of talk on here lately about the old Nighthawk 750, and it got me to wondering: especially since Honda did such a beautiful job with the CB1100, why don't they offer any other inline-4 standard/UJM bikes now? They've got a great line of both Sport and Supersport inline-4s to draw on, including the new CBR650F, which, from the sounds of the specs would make a great engine to build around, yet the CB1100 is the only member of the "naked" family for Honda. With all the nostalgia for classic looks these days, it seems like a mid-size would be a natural progression, and a slightly smaller size that a lot of people might prefer, the perfect direction to pursue.
Any thoughts?
