I am glad they brought it back, but there is no word if it will make its way to N. America. I really hope they do, because I will happily buy one. What I would LOVE to see is Honda bring back the dual-range gearbox. Not likely, but I can dream.

My 81 110 has the hi/lo trans..
full throttle in first gear low ratio.... you get over taken by snails ..
As long as it has traction it will climb anything...

I don't wish to return to the 1970's, but I sure would like to see some more of the bikes from the 1970's in production again.

Oh yeah. My CB500 but with better brakes, better exhaust, better suspension, better...um... Naw, it be a pretty boring ride if you didn't have to think to ride it. Anyway, still have my CX from 79 so still living it. Bring back the S90.
