Nice wheels Timbo. I think Honda missed a trick by not putting some fins on the engine. Engine looks out of place in there without them.

you could ride it but you will have to tax it on tuesday to beginning of may or wait another week and tax from june, but not ride till then, there is a grace period to account for purchases on weekend/bank holiday!
go ride the beast

Dont agree there to be honest. I think Honda have done it right, its not pretending to be anything other than a modern naked with new liquid cooled PGM-FI lump. Dont get me wrong, I know what you mean and I personally think the XJR1200 is the best looking of the bunch but the Honda is a different approach and I salute that individualism

The finish on the CB13s is also sublime and will definately outlast the Yam/Suzuki/Kwak

xjr1300 you mean, and I totally agree with you. Best looking by miles. But then again, it's not a new bike trying to look old, it is a bike from the mid 80's. Mind you, I never liked the swing arm on the zrx but it didn't stop me from wanting one.
