I owned a blue CB900F and a red CB900F2 (Bol D’Or) in the early 1980’s- still my all time favourite bike. I view the 1000-1300 as descendants of the 900 as they were replacements in the model line-up.

[@davidkeep6526]

CPU UK I agree ! These bikes descended from the 900 not the 750. The 900 was the fruit in Japanese sport bikes until the Suzuki GSX range took off. Always loved their no nonsense style and function and these look every bit as neat and imposing.

[@richardcasey7521]

I’ve had my 2014 Honda CB 1100 6-speed for 5 years and it’s been perfect. Not too heavy and has all the power I can use. No liquid cooling complexity or ABS, just a basic bike. I’m done chasing horsepower I can’t ever use.

[@georgejameson9317]

I have a zrx with some bolt on mods mostly from a scrap zzr that delivers 20 hp more that I use at least once every time out. I have about 4 k into it after selling off the take offs and the rest of the zzr.

Honda should bring back the 6-cylinder CBX 1000 but this time with a liquid-cooled engine = perfect.

Yep. About 1300 or 1400 cc's, and about 180 horsepower. And no more than 525 pounds -- not one ounce. Been wanting one of those for years.

Here in the UK I had the CB1300SA7. Red and white with a red frame, reminiscent of the 1980s CB1100R production racer from the early eighties. Lovely looking machine. I absolutely loved that bike. Comfortable, roomy and a tremendous engine. Honda quality in every aspect, a real pleasure to own. Physically big, the seat height is relatively high suiting the taller rider, unfortunately for me. The SA7 model is now a sought-after classic and fetch high prices. I went to a bike shop here in Norfolk last year that had one in, just to look at one for old-time’s sake. When I got there, a guy was in the process of buying it and according to the shop owner, two more potential customers were after it too. I would love to see these bikes for sale outside the Japanese market again. Would I buy one? No, in truth. They would cost £13,000 in the UK if not more. Would I buy one if they did another SA7 red frame CB1100R replica? Oh yes.

[@timsretirementjourney8323]

I also had a CB1100F (Canadian version which was a little different than the US) and you're right. This does look similar. For a motor this big it should have more HP than a '83 1100F though so it seem under-powered and wow is it expensive. No doubt it would be a great bike but for the price and power I'd probably be more tempted into a FJR1300 or 1400 Concours.

[@thekingofbohemia1]

I had two 1983 CB1000 Customs. They only made them one year. Great bikes, but those Customs looked nothing like any of these other CBs. Even the 1983 CB 1000Fs looked different than these new ones. Maybe its the exhaust coming out one side. I like the symmetrical exhaust. There used to be a CB, I think it was 1979, that was six cylinders. Three chrome pipes per side. There was a photo down at my local shop at the time showing a guy doing a wheely at 75 mph on one of those. Really tried to get my hands on one in the mid-80s

[@BikesILike]

I think you might be missing the point of this motorcycle Michael. If you're looking for examples of Honda technical innovation, you should be comparing an old Fireblade to today's model (900cc with 110HP - now 1000cc with 189HP). The CB1300 is not that type of motorcycle. It's for people seeking the complete nostalgic experience. I'd very much still enjoy owning and riding this motorcycle.

[@michaelwinter3132]

Since I have ridden that generation of bikes back in the days, I remember very well. Part of the experience was the fact that they were the meanest and fastest misfits on the streets. The bikes were roaring and tried to kill us in every curve, right? I don't see that wild attitude here.I like the lines and the technical perfection of this one, but I'd rather have a tricked out '83.

@@michaelwinter3132 That's fair enough Michael. I too am of that era my first big bike being the Yamaha XS1.1 (1100). Owned about 15 motorcycles since the 80's... including 2 CBR1000's and I do remember my 80's CBR1000 being a much more spirited ride than my 90's CBR1000. The quickest bike I've owned was the BMW K1300S (173HP, 0-100kph 2.9sec) But I feel the CBR1300 would be a more suitable ride for me these days, I also really like the current CBR1100 range, have a video coming on that bike soon.

Thanks for the video - a very nonsense, stupid-music free and informative. I have a 2010 model (latest model in UK) and the bike is amazing. A Honda salesman told me that there's not enough demand in UK and possibly it would slow down the sale of CBF1000 if Honda brought the latest model in UK. I'd be around £16000 ($20000) to import a UK sepc from Japan by Honda. I'd say it'd still better value for money that any comparable bike. This bike is so simple and reliable that many can't see its true beauty until the ride one.

Anyone wonder why they don't show other (left) side of bike? That's right. No exhaust. The Retro Big Bikes had.. for those who remember, Four into Four chrome pipes! Even with today's catalytics, they could split off from there to each side. Honda charges more than enough for these bikes& the CB1100. Retros are supposed to have FOUR exhaust pipes to the rear. One singular is just whimping out!

Aside from engine smoothness, unique exhaust note and visual impact, there's little benefit to justify the extra weight, complexity (cost) and handling deficit an in-line six-cylinder engine has when compared to an inline or V-four engine. That's why current nostalgia motorcycles are based on existing models, they're far superior to old, discontinued designs.

@@USARAY1947 -- Not sure what you mean by that, exactly. I used to own a Kawasaki KZ1300. It came out in 1979 and was a water-cooled, shaft-drive touring bike. It was undersquare, with two valves -- so with water-cooling it was actually quite narrow. But I am telling you -- the smoothness of that engine was worth a billion dollars. It was like a turbine: absolutely smooth. It was a whole different WORLD of internal combustion propulsion. There is NO four-cylinder engine that can duplicate that inline-six smoothness. And I'm a big fan of Honda's V-4's, so don't think I'm some kind of 4-cylinder hater. Short of a new Six, my dream bike would be a VFR1400 -- a new version of Honda's VFR1000 Interceptor from 1984. What a great bike. Don't be mistaken, though. A carefully designed Six can be very narrow AND light. As a matter of fact, Honda's new 2019 Leadwing weighs 100 pounds less than the previous generation of Leadwing. And it's had a horizontally-opposed six-cylinder for 30-some years. Six-cylinder engines ARE worth it.

[@USARAY1947]

@@jeffsmith4801 I was selling those Kawasaki sixes back in the day. Yes they were smooth and one surprised me with a second gear wheelie. However, they were terribly heavy for the time. Remember, this conversation started about the CBX, not the Goldwing. It's apples to oranges. Any inline six is going to be wider than a inline or V four so will be at a disadvantage handling-wise. Of course, handling is secondary to smoothness in a touring bike, which the CBX was not.

[@Drunken_Hamster]

Bikes should have at least as much HP as NM. Ideally, the same KW as NM. 100nm is roughly 73 lb-ft. At 100hp, that's no bad for a low end biased or low strung bike. 100kw is roughly 134hp. Still great and not over-stressed for a 73 ft-lbs engine. Probably still a great powerband and low end, too. Imo, bikes that do this are ideal to me, no need to go higher like 600cc race replicas which are approaching a 3x power to torque ratio nowadays. Unfortunately, as some have asked for, doing the nm to kw equivalency to the cb1300 WOULD put it around 158HP. Hence why I don't think it either needs to follow the golden rule, OR needs that much displacement and torque. The silver rule (nm to hp) is fine for retro type bikes and actually ideal for beginner bikes. And, just for more exposition, in the car world the rules shift down one notch. Golden is nm to hp, and silver is lb-ft and hp being equal.

I still ride an "83 CB1100f bought new in 83......every year, never lets me down, and is still plenty fast...If Honda were to use the paint scheme of my Blue/White model, and give it serious HP...it'd be a seller. Sadly the CB1100 Honda sells here in the states is a nice bike, it is no "F"....

[@mikeca98]

I own a 2014 CB1100 and a FJR1300. The Honda is fun and a blast from the past with modern amenities. I wish it had a little more than 89 HP. The CB1100 feels like a pit bike once I get back on the FJR with 145 HP. I would add that new CB1300 to my garage in a heartbeat.

[@gilbzmusic7186]

point taken..and heartily agree on your last sentence.

[@reinhardhagedorn6066]

Gread bike, i love it. Honda has to sell it in europe too...

[@greenbullitt6999]

Honda. Please sell this in the USA 🇺🇸

[@johnnyfanta]

And the UK please! You can keep the ugly, boring CB1000R...

[@mikeca98]

I'd drop 20 large out the door for that bike with the side bags tomorrow if it were available in the U.S. It would look so nice next to my CB1100 and FJR1300.

[@CB1000FP1]

I own a cb1000 big one that I brought new in 1995 and I can't bring myself to get rid of it as it's one of the best bike's I've owned and I've owned a lot since I started rideing bikes in 69, being a Honda it never breaks down, tyre choice is a bit limited but other than that it has no downsides

[@BikesILike]

Wow! I can fully understand why you still own it.

[@johnscott5662]

Why doesn’t Honda export these to the US?

[@MARKINAU8]

@CIA Defector that's not true: no bikes sold well these days

[@BracaPhoto]

Because only the 24 people watching this video would buy it 🤣🤣 And half of them will wait until first half sell them used 5 years later with 247 miles on the clock....

[@ram64man]

Now honda use this beast of an engine in a new pan European with shaft drive

[@thejourneyman1087]

I had a 2008 CB1300S (half fairing). Yes in stock form they arent powerhouses, but with full akra,K&N, PC3, and opened up airbox my bike made 130rwhp. Very easy and cheap mods. The bike makes 118nm of torque at low rpm, it has a redline of 8500rpm but can go over that in the lower gears. You can purchase rev limiter bypass for them from Japan. This is with stock 9.6ish compression and stock internals. They run on 91ron fuel, nothing is as low stressed as one of these bikes. Handling is exceptional for a steel frame of this type (UJM). Some basic mods like fork brace, uprated springs and decent tyres transform them. Power delivery and good torque for its era (2003), 310km range, comfy riding position and quality build make it best in class. Five years of ownership and many great rides endeared this bike to me. And yes I still enjoy riding its Grandpappy (my CB1100F Super Bol'dor) including period wobbly frame :)

[@DonaMane]

I'm not a Honda fan but this is something we need here in stateside! But if Suzuki build something like that...…….I'd jump on that!

[@frankmalone236]

I was extremely interested in the cb400 super 4 but Honda didn't bring to the States 😕

[@larrynorsworthy8582]

Yes they did

[@normandlanglois3453]

they were for 2 years... back in 1989 and 90....the cb-1..

[@MARKINAU8]

Not in Australia as well

[@heikopanzlaff3789]

It is basicaly a XJR 1300 with watercooled engine. Power figures are almost identical. Even the rear shocks are the same as well on the Yamaha SP - models l as on the Honda SP - models. What is funny, Öhlins is owned by Yamaha.

[@jwlfj1200]

It literally hurts that this is not available stateside.

[@druegeme]

Nice Video and amazing bike! It reminds me somehow of my 919 which is ine of the few supernakeds beought to the US. I ride it most days and I would consider the 13000SP as a replacemenr. If! They brought it to the Usa!

[@jwlfj1200]

It actually causes me emotional distress that I can't buy this bike because I live in the USA. I love my FJ1200 but would unload it today if I could buy this.

[@troymckee4047]

I do like it but love V4 even better st1300 and Interceptor are my fave

[@GIGABACHI]

A shame how they didn't do anything else with such a modern and good looking engine(ST1300).😔👎

[@User6327]

Really surprising in the advertised power. Seems really low considering the engine displacement. I wonder if they’re purposely underrated.

[@Leatherstockingfella]

Two catalytic converters.

[@cordcd7]

Leatherstocking Fella I thought he said three. Regardless it’s too many. Restrictions are out of hand these days.

[@Leatherstockingfella]

Aftermarket systems will get the numbers up. It has potential.

[@TimoLahti]

It's the reliability factor. CB1300 engine can be operated 100K+ miles without "opening" it to more than valve clearance.

[@PITBOY911]

Great looking bike, never liked the new transformer tendency style.

[@leviefrauim1425]

It's too bad Honda doesn't bring a bike like this to the US, especially in this retro era. Some of us more seasoned folks don't care for the current angular cuts so many manufacturers are inflicting upon their bikes nowadays & the more more familiar form of the UJM rings truer to function meeting form. And while power output from the 1300cc seems adequate, I'd have to ask why so low in HP/torque. Conversely, why is the price so high, especially on the Bols D'or model? As much I'd love to have this bike, that price would dissuade me from purchasing.

[@paulordeman5169]

Oh that is beautiful. I so want one! What a shame that well probably never see Honda Aust introduce this and other highly desirable models into Australia.

[@marktaylor148]

Apparently no plans on it coming to the U.K. I hear 😠

[@pascalmonier4642]

My first street bike was a Honda CB1100F 1983 and blue instead of red., just like the one on the picture.

[@Coldestaevadoit]

Imagine that bike with modern power around 150 hp and 80+ torque. No wheelie control or rider modes. Just abs maybe . I don’t usually buy off the showroom floor but may for a bike like that. I’m sure it’s still quick but even the 1200 vfr has way more hp. What were the thinking. It’s name is the big one but don’t think they can keep that nickname for this version. Still nice bike though

[@MattChux74]

Nice wrap up Mr BIL! Syd - Aust. - I love my 2004 Super 4! It's the 'classic' white with metallic red features on the tank and rear / under seat plastics. I've had the front shock recon done (Springs / valves / oil grade / slider polish) for my 105kg frame, and run cold pressures 40PSI front and 34PSI rear. She's got 110,000km now and the valve clearances are still within spec. It's a little notchy down low with the Delkevic slip on and baffle removed, but it doesn't spend much time in that lower band rev range. Can anyone please tell me if its possible to swap a later model 6spd box onto these motors (of course with a tune)...? I'd love the lower RPM for the lazier weekend get aways with my girl pillion.

[@BikesILike]

Cheers Matt. Don't ever sell that bike! ;)

[@dipankardas1760]

This bike is love at first sight ❤️❤️

[@pjeng1]

I was puzzled by the fact that Honda is not selling CB1100 or 1300 retro design products in the US and Canada market while Kawasaki is very successful in selling its very popular Z900RS similar retro design bike.

[@robertpolkamp]

Honda could bring the CB1300 Super Bol D'or to America any time now....!
