Please make it stop.
I know I'm not really a big Honda fan but just possible sales numbers alone should put paid to a modern CBX 1000 revite. They'll sell about fifty of the bloody things to elderly gents who'll put em in a glass case and the world will continue turning as if nobody else gives a crap.

Just like that Norton thing from.a few years ago. Nope, not for me.

When they came out, they blew the world apart.
You kids have no soul ;)

Think of the R&D spend, they'd never make the money back before we are all on leccy bikes.
As has been said, I doubt they'd ever build a newer one and frankly if they did it'd be monstrosity with all the water cooling on it!

It's not that good. I'd say AI... there's someone in the background who appears to have no lower torso or legs.
