Oh yes we did..... ;D I don't know the intricacies of your market but we get plenty of bikes you guys don't..... :o

Wardenerd, the price will be not worth your while at the moment mate, our dollar is about 30+% higher than the USD than it was 18 months ago and rising at the moment, making any Aussie stuff really expensive.....

Here is what is on the wish list.
4/1 Ti Yosh and a new seat. (K Style)
It's top quality Japanese with a top price.
The seat on these CB1100's is an arse breaker after a few hundred miles.
Just 2 other drawbacks, is the fuel capacity and the height of the rear brake pedal which needs to be about 40 > 50mm lower.
The way that I ride, means taking my boot right off of the foot peg to apply the rear brake which is a distraction.
Apart from that, it's a great bike with a ton of punch from takeoff and delivers the goods right up to and well over 100 MPH, it handles great and stops on a pin head.

Those are a sexy SOHC reincarnations!

Yes, I see the DOHC part of it, lol.
I don't have a motorcycle, sold it ('85 Yamaha Venture Royale).  Haven't had a CB750 for over 40 years.
