Interesting. They also had a couple of Toyota S800 cars in one display and another similar variant elsewhere that I am not able to identify (or in my case, I just can't be bothered to try and look it up right now, lol).Lord Popgun_imp said:

I have entertained thoughts of trying to visit this museum at some point in my life. I can only imagine the frustration you must have felt the first time. But the second time around, I'd probably have blown a gasket.

Very cool indeed. Found "my" 78/79 CX500. All the bikes are so show case pretty 
That museum is crammed so full of awesome goodies that I could imagine myself fainting after stepping foot inside, lol. I only wish that they had about twice as many viewing points available for the virtual tour.
One reason I mention this is because I can’t get a good look at one of the true highlights for me which is the 1970 Candy Blue/Green CB350K2 Super Sport just like the bike that my dad used to own. He had other Honda’s previous to that but to my young eye the 1970 CB350 was heads and tails above the others in terms of how cool it looked. I still think these are great looking bikes. My apologies for posting this photo yet again but it is one of my all-time favorites.
Another highlight for me is the RA300 Grand Prix car. I have no idea how I would have seen photos of this car as a young child, but not long after entering grade school I used to draw illustrations of this particular car amongst others from the likes of Lotus and Ferrari for my Pediatrician to hang in his office. I can’t help but think that John Surtees’ life story would make for a great movie.

great pic Guth. After I totaled my 305 Scrambler running into a left turning Buick, I bought a new CB 350 that looked just like that.

A classic. They nearly all looked the same then. Some engines were bigger.
It turns out this did not take too much in the way of time or effort to find out that the other Toyota in the museum is actually the concept car that ultimately lead to the Toyota Sports 800. I have to wonder not only why Honda has the car in their museum by how they were able to obtain it.Guth_imp said:

are you sure they are Toyotas and not the S 600, S800 sports cars from Honda 1964-1966
Yes indeed...The ferret_imp said:

Hi Lemis. Welcome to the forum. How about visiting the new members area and telling us about yourself and what sort of CB1100 you had, have or hanker after.
The link works just fine.
