:drool::yumyum: Yeah, I've been watching that auction. It's going for some serious coin but that one is definitely a museum piece. Steve, you're still looking for a bike, right? :D Gear driven cams, SSSA, and the baddest paint scheme ever done. Snap that bad boy up and I'll trade you a ride on the 1000R. :)

With Honda's renewed V4 efforts (they say they will announce a new V4 bike in the Fall and several others in the next few years), I think there's a fair chance that we'll see a successor to the legendary RC30/RC45 line...

I am looking EVERY day for my next bike. I am waiting to see what Honda is coming up with. The CB1100r looks bad ass, but I am a VFR guy at heart.

Wow the RC30 comes with these sweet leathers.

Yeah, that CB does look sweet as hell. If it had a V4 in it, I would already have one.

Fixed.... I think it's a running gag Honda plays on the editors of England's MCN....

:) Actually, Honda hasn't been saying anything in the past. It's the jackasses at MCN who keep making shit up. One of the writers appears on the VFR board about once a year and promptly gets torn a new one by the old guard. The noobs fall for it every time. But this year Honda is talking (Shigeru Takagi, president and managing director of Honda Motor Europe):


“Many of you have asked yourselves: “Is this V4 Concept Bike just a design study? Is there any connection to a future model?”

“I am happy to be able to confirm today that there is a link to more than one model in our future model lineup. The first production machine related to the V4 Concept Bike will be delivered in the first half of 2010. And there be more to come.”

Agreed. Why they would want to cover the SSSA, I don't know. But, hey, you could take your stock bike to a pumpkin launching contest and have a fair chance of winning. Just shove one down that bad boy and rev it.

I've seen these. Can't wait to see the final version; the styling is not my favorite right now, hope they tweak it a little. Either way it should be awesome.
