Some econo-minded politicians think that
Less Is More and Smaller Is Better, a good trick if you can pull it off. Honda
thinks so too, and has enough magic to make the trick work.

Honda CB450 Super Sport (1970) |
|
If you were a Honda engineer, and you made
the same mistake twice, you'd turn in your computer and fall on your sword.
Bearing that in mind the engineers have made the 450... perfect.

The 500T has Japanese engineering, British
baroque styling, and Detroit-City packaging. Did the CB-450 really need all
that?

Everybody knows the legendary Ducati Desmo SS
boasts the world's best handling. Everybody also knows that Japanese Fours will
never match the Italian legend. The 1980 CB750F and Willow Springs Raceway prove
that everybody, as usual, is wrong.

Compromise isn't exactly the right word for
the new Honda. CB900 Custom, but it's a word that comes to mind.

Honda CB900 Custom (1982) |
|
Our first impression of the 900C is that it's
got it all. Custom styling for show-boating. A dual-range transmission for
sporting jaunts or highway cruising. Air suspension and shaft drive for touring.
Now, our final impression...

Even in an age of superbikes, nobody could
believe it when Honda unveiled the CBX Six late in 1977. More cylinders, more
camshafts, more horse-power, more speed, more acceleration, more more. It was
the fastest, quickest, flashiest, most head-turning two-wheeled street vehicle
ever seen. Just sitting on it sent a chill up a rider's spine, and the exhaust
note prompted experienced pilots to secretly doubt that they'd ever be able to
fully master the immense, overwhelming machine.

No, this is not another outdated racer
disguised in gallons of red paint. All-new from the ground up, this latest CR is
the fastest, best-steering 250 yet, with the longest suspension travel ever.
