Don`t know if this is the right forum for this (other bikes perhaps?) But either way this is sooo neat...just wish I had the scratch for it.

This doesn't look anything like the only CB1000 'Big One' I'm familiar with. To me it looks more like a bad copy of a V-Max.

Aha, and that is just it...it isn't supposed to be the next "the big one", it is supposed to be a reinterpretation of an old school bike.  I have seen mixed reviews of these bikes, so say that HONDA is looking back instead of forward, others saying they'd buy one (or two) if they were produced.  Not sure where I stand yet...
I need help moving my project bike from Wisconsin to Seattle, WA.  Willing to pay well.  Contact if interested.
