And while the US gets the "Furry," Europe gets this:
Perhaps Honda just sees US riders as short, fat poseurs.

the Fury is still waaaaay better than this
I think that thing is around 12 to 13 grand too. Way overpriced IMO.

I knida like the Fury, it's a clean expresion of a popular bike design. I'm sure I'll find things that I won't like when/if I see it in person, but I tend to be a little nit-picky. Did anyone notice that it has less steering trail than a 9*6?

That's one fantastic looking bike! Why didn't they just bring that over here?
I don't understand why companies would make US specific products that are terrible. Take Ford as an example, the Euro spec cars are great! They have the Ka, Mondeo, and even the Focus is great, built on a totally different platfrom than the US spec Focus. I just don't get it...

That CB1100F is cool, but its UJM styling doesn't really do anything for me.
The CB1100R, on the other hand...

The best part about this "chopper" is the shaft drive.
I like choppers. I just don't like this. This, "bolt on to make it your own" bs that destroys the whole idea of a chopper. Chopper - Chopped - Cut frame and extended. Add a different seat and mirrors and voila - it's "custom". It's not custom. You cant change out a front sprocket with a shaft drive, you cant even change out for a different size rear tire with a shaft drive. Its too small to be a beach cruiser so the bars look wrong. Stock forks, stock huge fender. They really didn't even try.

They'd be foolish not to - they'd sell like crazy. I'd probably even have to buy one.
