This is very nice. I'll even forgive the gold bling bars and damper,though I'd change them to black.

Very nice, but seat kills it.

What's wrong with the seat?

I'd definitely lose the blingy gold bars, but would also get the swingarm painted or powder coated black to match the frame. And those bar end mirrors would have to go. Other than that, very tidy.

If they gave it USD forks, an ali beam frame, maybe a four cylinder four stroke engine and a full fairing, then I'd be on that like a tramp on chips.

So a completely different bike, then?

Either that or they put some pink decals on it.

Nice trackday bike for someone here

Sadly there's not enough money down the back of the sofa for me to afford it

That would be a poor trackbike. Too expensive to crash.
On track I want to be in the situation where I don't give a shit if I bin it.
Same with my GasGas enduro bike. Binned it big-time third ride.

The CB1300 everyone wants is the one that nobody wanted when it was new.
The late model with the red frame... which I'd have over that one every day of the week.

My Dad had one of them from new, with the red frame. A lovely shade of red it was too.

Looks like a Subaru Boxer engine to me?

Why does it need a chain follower?? Is there something odd about the rear suspension? (can't really see it)

Not sure if I'm honest - maybe so it looks pretty?
