A CB1100 Variant in the works?

[Capo]

Looks like there may be some life left in the CB1100 family. I'd buy this one in a minute:

Honda CB900R rumoured

Nice looking machine although personally I still prefer (by a bunch) the looks of the CB 1100 especially the dlx.

Beautiful concept but a bike I would not be comfortable on given it's sport type ergonomics. If it is made a production bike, will it come to the US after the reception the CB1100 received? I hope it would.

When Honda presented the two concept bikes back in 2007, I thought the CB1100F was very nice but the one I really wanted was the R. Then the CB1100 became a reality, and I ended up buying one. If the R now finally becomes a reality, I am pretty sure I would end up changing my EX for that. Just love the look of that bike, and as much as I love cruising with my EX, I do lust after something a little bit more sporty.

Interesting, but I think I'll stick with what I have.

Not a sport bike guy but she's pirdy.

The CB400Four is the one that grabs my attention. So retrolicious.

 

[veech_imp]

I like that a LOT, but it would have to be in addition to not instead of the CB11.

I wonder if the engine would be saddled with the rev limiter. Will top speed be 110mph? Not exactly my cup of tea, but beautiful to look at! Go Honda!

Gentlemen,

Even if the ergonomics were terrible, if Honda built that bike I would buy one just to put it in my living room. Amazingly beautiful.

[Novice_imp]

I like it!

 

[Pterodactyl_imp]

I like it but will, if it comes to fruition, watch some one else ride it.

Cheers

Am I missing something here? That's just a pic of the 2007 concept bike. Honda unveil latest prototypes
I'd think that if the idea was actually finally going to be pursued for a production bike, things would have changed dramatically in looks and just about every other way over the course of 8 years. :huh:

 

[metallyguitarded_imp]

That is one beautiful machine! I hope it never goes into production because then I will know it exists and not be in a position to buy it. I know, incredibly self-centered and inconsiderate. What can I say? I'm a jerk. Man, I like that bike.

 

[EGAlvarez_imp]

That is very pretty! However, my knees, wrists and neck ache just looking at that thing. I recon it would be great fun for 20 minute track day sessions!

I was hoping that it was going to be a CB1100 Deluxe based retro tourer. Something like a modern, and more stylish, version of the bike found here!

That is a really interesting exhaust finish. Shiny black chrome with a slight matte finish. I've never seen anything quite like it. Very nice.

Chip my 85 V65 Sabre had that same exhaust finish

That's the bike I wish Honda would make again. A standard, upright V4. Couldn't call it a Sabre since they use that in their cruiser lines now.
