RE: Somewhat Surprising
Interesting that the new CB1100 is drawing a lot of good press again. Hopefully Honda and it's dealerships will do a better job of marketing it! I also found it interesting that in the Cycle World article, they didn't focus on the RS model?

That RRSP is a fine looking mama. Good for Ducati bringing back the Supersport; too bad it's so ugly.

RE: Somewhat Surprising
Nice to see the CB in the press again. It just goes to show there is still an interest for a "Standard" in the market place or Honda wouldn't have made the effort to update the platform. Russ

RE: Somewhat Surprising
Europe is a lot more hip than the US when it comes to bikes. Notice there wasn't a Harley on the list

RE: Somewhat Surprising
In all fairness to the last post, I don't think the Europeans are more hip, they just have different taste. If you were at the New York motorcycle show in NYC and the crowd was filled with 25 yr Olds the Harley Sportsters would have a crowd around them and the CB would probably get little interest. The new hipster crowd just loves the sportsters and the triumphs, Ducati and BMWs. The rest of the regular kids love the sports bikes and FZ09 type bikes.

RE: Somewhat Surprising
Just saying with the 13 and 14 CB1100 models getting little interest in the states except for the deluxe, will these changes be enough to get interest from more people here in the U.S. and from different age groups. I know the bike show being discussed was INTERMOT but how does that relate to us here. It will be interesting to see.
