I think all the 500 cc bikes will serve Honda well. Inexpensive to capture new riders. If the CB1100 does well I think they need to more similar bikes. One at 600 and 800 ccs.

Went to my dealership to inquire about their expected delivery date for a CB1100, which is what I wanted 2 years ago. Bought my RS instead.. Anyway. Nice salesman there has no clue it exists, insists it's not made for the US market, and proceeds to try and look it up. I get ignored for a bit, wander off, look at the NX700, leave.

Going to see if the next closest dealer wants to take my money this spring. I want my standard, still love my RS too. Never have too many rides.

My local dealer said April. He also feared that they would initially only get one. His fear also included the concern that more bikes will come in September, just when they will be of little values. Of course you are in a bigger market and may get bikes earlier.
