Can the super uber neeto new Honda GB500 be far behind?

Of course, the Triumphs were retro before retro was cool.

I do like the new Kaw, though.

I loved mine.  Biggest vehicle mistake in my life was getting rid of it.  But, I was young, didn't have a lot of money, and needed a bigger bike for touring.  The dealership had called me to see if I wanted to get rid of it and offered a good deal on a Yamaha fj1200. The yammy was a good sport touring bike, fast, decent mileage, and good handling.   It's only drawback was it being air cooled.
But the GB, in my opinion, is one of the most gorgeous bikes of all time.  Honda certainly did "retro" right with it.
