It is just a concept right now, but I think I would buy one of these. I like the retro look...sure to be cheaper than a Ducati! :)

Saw another pic of that, love the old school look.
Clean, basic, and after this weekends wrenching,
a hell of a lot easier to work on.

Anyone know if they're actually going to manufacture this
and what the displacement is?

I found it as the CB1100R. I hope they make it. :drool:

I'd buy one up in a second if they make it. It'd be even cooler if they put together a parts catalog with some upgrady bits like suspension components for it

Drift,
Yes that is very retro and cool.
I would consider one for sure.
Nothing but the basics, just like I like them.
Later Bash

ya know if theyre going for retro look they need to get rid of that hump for the rear seat and leave a straight tail.... it looks too much like a tl1000s .... dont like it.

It looks as though it's air-cooler with just an oil cooler heat exchanger in the lower cowl.
No wonder it looks so clean.
(Does that cowl look like the outdated robots from the I-Robot movie or is it just me?)

I have to agree, I don't like the front end, the headlights mostly.

Yeah, a big round single light would have completed the old school look

The Kawi Trash Can Triples fell into that class of:
"Almost as fast as a cannonball...and handles exactly like a cannonball."

I want a Matchless Cafe someday....but will probably settle for a Norton.
