Honda bring it's 1980 heritage motorcycle to Tokyo Motor Show 2007, CB1100F. It still bring it's retro style, almost the same with Old Honda CB which become a road king in Indonesia in 1970. Besides this retro bike, Honda also bring a retro-style racer (the CB1100R), an over-the-top naked bike concept (the EVO6), an automatic transmission equipped DN-01, CB1300 and CB400 bikes, and a maxi-scooter (the Forza Z.)
Honda has a rich history of iconic machines, and with this model—as well as its sister, the [LINK TO CB1100R] CB1100R prototype—it may be looking to cash in on that heritage. Styled much like the classic CB400F of 1975-1978, the CB1100F uses twin shocks, a tube frame and an air-cooled 1100cc four-cylinder motor that looks similar to the one in the Japan-market CB750 that was released last year.
Styling is tastefully vintage Honda. The blocky yet proportioned tank, like the minimal seat and perfectly curved headers are reminiscent of the mid-’70s Honda Supersports. Chrome fenders and mirrors make you want to put on a leisure suit and dance the night away, and the taillight housing and turnsignals have a soft, aluminum luster to them.
