1969 Honda CB750. This is something I drew a longtime ago. It's a great looking bike!
If you are familiar with Japanese bikes so called, "UJM(Universal Japanese Motorcycle)", you might have heard of the release of Honda CB1100f back in 2010.It's been available only in Japan, Australia, and some European countries.... So Honda thinks it wouldn't sell.... there is no market in The U.S.? I should say it's wrong! Well maybe folks in Nashville wouldn't show much interest in this beautiful bike, but they can select the market, start selling in limited locations such as San Francisco(definitely!), New York, Chicago, Philadelphia... I'm not to sure about L.A. though... This way they shouldn't have to invest too much yet keep the fans and fanatics happy on the road!
Some people might go against, but ABS is available on this one too. I'm not gonna upload the Youtube footage of Honda's "with and without ABS" testing in here.... but if you are interested in safety, that's something you should watch. (Seriously. Please do.) Up-to-date technology in Retro design. That's sexy. I really hope Honda rethink about it, do the marketing once again, ....and bring this beauty to us in The U.S.!!
