You just had to post that.   ;)

We probably wont get it in the states, red seems to be the only color Honda thinks we like.  I wish I had 10k to get one of these bikes.  I would definitely repaint it in sunrise orange.  Maybe I can talk my wife into no wine, or eating out, or clothes for the babies for the next 5 years  8)

I would not mind red, local Honda has one in stock for a while now, seems nobody's buying.

Think about it. If you had 10 grand to spend on a bike like this, wouldn't you rather spend $5000 on a pristine K model CB750 and use  the other 5G to take a long trip on it?

Well yeah, but it would be cool to have both a 74 and 2014.  Then when my son and grandson discover them under a tarp somewhere I can say if you like this check out that. 8)  Plus, I would like a new bike to have for when I am working on the older one, what better modern bike to get than a throwback of one I already love?

I like my women a little big. Natural. Now, they shave this and wax that. It's not right. I love natural women. Big women. This trend in women has to go. Bulomia, anorexia. That's just wrong. You know what will cure that? My special sticky buns. One lick of my sticky buns and your appetite will come right back. ~ RIP Mr. Borgnine  01/24/1917 - 07/08/2012  :'(

Then buy 2 pristine K models.

Can't i just get a new one if I want a new bike?  I can't afford even a 300 dollar junk pile right now so it's all make believe at this point.

I like the looks of the bike. Nothing compares to the vintage CB's, but I think they've done a nice job capturing the "spirit" of the vintage bikes. They got a lot of the details, correct.

O.K. go ahead and buy a new one. You have my permission.

Haha, thanks.  I'll let you know when I reach the 10k threshold or the 25 year mark when prices will be low  8)

Saw one in the wild at the Harvest Classic this year. 
Up close I didn't care for the tank so much. More like the DOHC than SOHC.
But spokes and dual exhaust could only make it better.
