In the early 90s, Suzuki and Kawasaki both had large-displacement naked standard bikes for riders that wanted decent ergos with reasonable power, and Honda had nothing to compete with.

The story is that a few engineers at Honda thought they could compete something they called “Project Big 1”, a smooth rider with retro superbike styling. The project name stuck around as a nickname, which is why you’ll occasionally hear this bike referred to as “The Big One”. Unfortunately for Honda, big was not the word you could use for the sales numbers, and the bike was only offered in the US in 1994 and 1995.

The production version used a detuned engine from the CBR1000 which was good for 97 horsepower. In addition, the transmission lost a gear (down to 5) in the process. Reviewers everything else about the bike was absolutely excellent, especially for someone looking for a daily rider. Hefty 43mm Showa cartridge forks handled suspension duties up front, with twin Showa shocks taking care of duties (and providing a bit of classic style) in the rear. A 5.8 gallon fuel tank provided plenty of range, and the whole package weighed 582 pounds.

This example is VIN: JH2SC3000SM100281. The seller’s brother acquired it 8-9 months ago from an estate sale in Utah.
