BEET it has a different look and they say it fits the 400 or the 250. And at a $100.00 it relatively close to something knew stock.

Reminds me of an exaggerated version of the CBX/CB750/900/1100F tails of the late 70's & early 80's... which I always liked, but this one's a bit too much for me.

No, I never had the chance, but when I was bike shopping when I bought the B12, I was on the look-out for a clean AND affordable CBX SuperSport. The closest I've ever got to something from that period was a CB900F SuperSport back in '84. Even had a down payment put on that bike, but when I went with the cash to pick it up, the guy changed his mind and decided to keep it and refunded my deposit.

Sorry to hear that Red...  I owned a CB1100f (back when they were undervalued and affordable, not today when they cost more than a gently used B12).  Amazing bike....  more sporty than the CBX I put ~20 miles on, but the CBX was setup for touring too (and my CB1100F was an ex endurance machine, maybe that's why it was so cheap...  heh)

I still have a crush on that bike, tried a ZRX1100 as a replacement for the feeling, but that was the bigest pile of poo (er, no, I guess that was a VX800 Suzuki) I've ridden...  the only bike I've sold after owning/riding for less than a year, and it only made it 6 months.
