Well here he is

for those of you that have M.B.S. (multiple bike syndrome) and have the "silver wing" models.
as our sponsors also have supplies for those bikes and they are popular with the "wing" crowd.

Your roving reporter has discovered the word "bobber" is now non-cool. You've been warned.

That really is one of the coolest engines that Honda ever made.

Wish they'd continued it up to 1000cc.

I may have to start looking for one of those.

I've never given them much thought; a little ugly to me (that swooping saddle and 45 degree pitch on the gas tank just scream SCOOTER at me) but you're right, roady. That is one cool motor.

DOHC, 8-valve two-cylinder... The possibilities...
