So I am going through my news feed and found this article. 5 Discontinued Honda Motorcycles We Want To See Again In 2025.

Heck yea! A new CB 1100 would be great

 

[misterprofessionality]

It's disappointing to say, but we won't get anything of the sort. The only thing we could ever have hope for is they may shove the Africa Twin 1100 into a retro CB-like frame. Or maybe they'll give the new CB350 single cylinder to North America? I'd be happy about that.

Doubt they will but Honda could reintroduce a liquid cooled 1000cc 4-cylinder, naked bike utilizing a torquier version of the current CB1000R motor styled somewhat after a 1995 CB1000. I'd buy one in a heartbeat.

[misterprofessionality]

You're right. That is a lot more likely. I wouldn't expect Honda to ever R&D a new ICE motorcycle motor ever again (least of all an inline 4 cylinder), but they're certainly going to be willing to re-tweak existing motors and re-apply them to new products.

While in Portugal, I saw a couple riding a 4 cylinder Yamaha modern street bike
For sure it had a 4 cyl headers like our CB but much smaller engine size of +~ 500cc ????
Cannot provide any more info or pics, as the “seeing event” lasted only a few seconds

 

[misterprofessionality]

Yea, smaller i4 bikes are common overseas. I am sooooo jealous.

I'd like them to do another CB750!

I’d just be happy if they would import the Honda CB1300 Super Bol D'or in the red, white and blue paint scheme. Fat chance but I bet they’d probably sell at least as many of those as they did the CB1100.

^^ +1 ^^

Misterprofessionality, have you seen the new Kawasaki ZX4RR. there's your smaller displacement I4. reflashed one gets ~70 hp out of the little bugger. 16K rpm ceiling. is this what you are wishing for? probably the closest thing we're likely to see for awhile.

Saw it too. felt so great to see the CB1100 on the list. What about the new 2024 Final Edition CB1100? Is it to be sold in the USA?

I agree. I would probably try to get one!
