Fly to Phoenix and ride it back home, it is summer in America !
If prices are falling then maybe this will be the last year for the CB1100 in the USA. Or maybe it will be like the Fury. Good sales for the first few years until everyone that wanted one got theirs, then it's just imported in fewer numbers and fewer variant/paint choices because they know that it will not be a big seller...

Nah. Honda was at least 5 years behind the curve on the whole chopper thing. This feels different. Triumph has had the Bonneville out for a while and others are trying the old British twin thing, but nobody's doing a UJM inspired bike until now. Most dealers around here only have 2013s in the showroom floor (sometimes sitting next to unsold VFR1200s).
Would be fun to see Honda go lower in displacement and see what happens. Anybody up for a CB550 (retro fun and 65 mpg?) CB750?
I so wanted a CB500 when they first came out in around 1973, but I'm not quite so sure I'd want to back to the smaller bike—at this stage anyway. In the future when the weight of the 1100 starts getting a bit much who could say. It'd be great if they re-released both the CB500 (or 550) and the CB750.
