This showed up at the Osaka Motorcycle Show last month, Honda’s existing CB1100 all dolled up in a very upscale way, bobbed out back and minus its passenger seat. The gas tank’s been replaced by an aluminum one, minus the typical seam and maybe a little bigger capacity. The swingarm is a big boxy unit swinging from Öhlins shocks, and it’s packing a modern radial tire on a 17-inch wheel just like the front. Also in front are a chunkier fork, bigger brakes and a swell LED headlight. Spent exhaust gases exit via Over Racing system.
Look out Thruxton! If Honda ever actually produced anything this cool anymore we wouldn’t know how to act.

Would look better with a 4 into 1 exhaust.
