2016 CB1100A in Canada

[Townie_imp]

Honda Canada have posted a 2016 CB1100A on their website:

Looks to essentially be like a 2014 Canada model, with a different paint job. Still nice though.

That's one of the concept CB's from the Osaka show I think.

Ooh baby, that's good news. I need to update the history section.

I believe that was one of the production models from the show, not a concept.

Looks good in that scheme. Interesting to know if any of the specs differ significantly from the '14 model.

Randy I found it, it was a Custom Concept from the Tokyo show, only as a concept it had a cafe style seat, bar end mirrors and black 4 into 2 pipes, whereas the production model shown has a std seat, std mirrors and stainless and chrome pipe 4 into 1

Its one of the two "models planned for production" shown here:

The other is the EX with a new two tone paint job. Typical Honda, not much by way of changes other than some cosmetics... looks like our 2014 black standard with white checkered stripes, black fenders and ABS. 2014 black standards in some other markets (countries) already had ABS. Two interesting things: $12999 CA converts to $9968 US which is less than our 2014 without ABS... and the Canadian specs say combined brake system with ABS but it still only has four pot calipers. The DLX specs said the same thing.

So will we get one or both of the "models planned for production"? The EX would sure please the spoke wheel lovers, and if you don't like the color you're just a gas tank and side covers away from Candy Red, Pearl White and whatever other colors the EX was offered in. Also, I bet Honda sells a bunch of those black fenders to '14 standard owners when the part numbers are available!!

I wonder if it has a LED head light?

It's funny because if you click through the different sections, it looks like you can still buy the old colours -- either that or they're just using parts from the old website.

"Deep rich pearl blue paint on the classically styled fuel tank is complimented by high quality Honda wing emblems."

Ferret this is where I saw it. I don't remember ever seeing the one from the show now that I think about it.
