When will we find out about the 2015 Hondas?
I like the retro look better. Even the CB1300 is not my taste. Looks like the ZRX1200. I know they like to change style but retro bikes just look so functional and beautiful to look at too.

I am pretty sure they're not going to do it, but I would have strongly considered that over the 1100 if it was an offering here. These days the new price of that is getting to be around 7 or 8k in Japan, though, so it's not even that much cheaper. Used they would go for probably 3 or 4k typically.

Don't get me started on the CB400 Smile I've been a big fan of the Super Four for the last 20 years or so. I pester American Honda to bring it here at least once a year. They haven't listened so far Sad That's about the only bike that would tempt me to sell the old CB750 to make room in the garage.

For me, it is the first bike I really fell in love with and so somehow it's just what a more "modern" naked inline 4 should look like in my mind.
I can't say I'm not satisfied with what I've got now, though!

iif they built a retro styled version of this on the cbr500 platform in the thailand plant , they could keep the cost within reason ....

It's very like its larger cousin, the CB1300.

I think part of the problem is Honda in general. They really have thrown some spaghetti at the wall to see what sticks, with some strange new models. Their current range is mostly uninspiring, albeit high quality. And they do price their products at a premium. My sense is that many enthusiasts that might have eyes the CB and other Hondas have moved on the European brands.

Well, if they moved to BMW then they're paying 4-5K more. I don't see it.
