That kit costs 5200.00 American dollars. No thank you.

That is quite expensive. I wonder why? Shipping?

Maybe some of the tuners in America can make the retro kit for CB1100?Big Grin

Mostly because it's primarily a pile of low volume, hand made, custom parts.

This is only my guess but maybe under the seat cowling?
The technology has come a long way and some batteries are very small.
Small batteries are popular among cafe racer builders for clean look.

Here are some small batteries.

Yes, the Samurider kit is expensive. But, it's top quality like everything I've bought from his company. One picky thing---the 'modern' gas cap looks out of place? I don't recall any Honda from the 70s using that.

I noticed the gas cap too. As much as I like the kit, for my money I'd rather have a nice '69 or '70 KO, although I did once have a '70 and it wasn't very satisfying to ride. The CB1100 is a quantum leap forward.
