No,But I wouldn't mind a shilling each way that it is the same as the CBX 1000 6 pot,as the same bloke designed that one IIRC.

I'll bet you're right. By the way, Soichiro Irimajiri was the guy who designed both.

That sounds about right to me Phil. Any pics of travelling marshalls on CBXs when Honda provided them? Any other interesting travelling marshall stuff? Which other bikes did they ride? Are they still part of the TT?
