I like this modern, but 70's retro UJM concept bike.  It looks like there is still a chance it might make into production.  It looks good with the titanium exhaust.  What do you think of this bike?  Does it have any chance of making it into production?

Retro-y.  Looks good, the CF can doesn't quite fit the look - but beyond that it's solid.  Not a OMG that's so cool! Bike, but a solid looker, I wouldn't turn one down

Isn't the motor supposed to be able to produce as much power as a water cooled mill?.. I really want the hair faired endurance model to make it into production.

I really like that but I am a permanent member of the old school retro club. They come up with these cool show bikes but few ever seem to make it to production and the ones that do are like the butt ugly B King Suzook. vomit I like my ZRX1200R which nicely mimics my '83 KZ1000R Lawson Replica in a more modern kind of way. waytogo

Boy I think that would look sweet with a tail chop and some clubman bars and bar end mirrors.

Very nice.  I've always been a fan of the Honda CB bikes of the 70s and this retro interpretation is very nicely done.

I like it for the same reason as the Monster. It is simply a motorcycle. That said I don't know that it would ever get my dollars.

I agree.  It is a "solid looker".  That is what I like about it.  It just looks like a motorcycle.  Nothing fancy.  The tank is a little odd/different, but it isn't bad.  I could get used to the tank. 

The first picture (blue & silver) bike has a two tone paint job that emphasizes the shape of the tank.  In the second picture (red bike).  It looks like it has an airbrushed, fade to black paint job that minimizes the shape of the tank.  They may have chosen these two paint jobs to gauge people's reaction to the shape of the tank.

Boy I think that would look sweet with a tail chop and some clubman bars and bar end mirrors.
Yes, exactly right.  It looks like it would be easy to unbolt that rear fender.

The latest issue of Motorcyclist magazine is reporting that the CB1100F is already listed as a 2010 model.

Hey Honda, how 'bout a new CB400F to go with it?

Love the look of this bike - simple and functional.

Anyone know who makes those titanium exhausts? <drool>
