Possible New CBX in the making
« on: July 14, 2018, 11:32:05 AM »
I found this in my Google feed.

It's a pending patent with Honda on a new CBX design. It's gonna be one of those cookie cutter factory cafes but it's the CBX so I'm a little psyched.  ;D

Not so sure. An inline 6 is an expensive, unprofitable endeavor depending on the bike's purpose and target market.
Not that long ago, Honda teased everybody in the DOHC community with a proposed "reincarnation" of a CB1100R-style bike. It never happened.
