I would like to thank Honda in Australia for the prompt response. I sent an enquiry with regards to the CB1100 2017 Ex received an answer a few days later. The Yamaha XJR1300 is for sale in Victoria for $15490 ride away and I guess that is where Honda would sell the 2017 CB1100EX. It would be at least near or above that price point. Ok, a stab at $15000-17000. The self answering question is would I pay that? Not in 2017.
Here is the Honda response.
"Thank you for contacting Honda Australia.
