Member Contributer Grum Posted September 8, 2019 Member Contributer Share Posted September 8, 2019 Looks very special indeed Mohawk, would prefer it without the upper Rothmans Racing sticker. Agree with you, could be a hot seller if Honda made them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Terry Posted September 8, 2019 Member Contributer Share Posted September 8, 2019 They do this in Japan...no carcinogens involved (actually I love the Rothmans colours). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Mohawk Posted September 8, 2019 Author Member Contributer Share Posted September 8, 2019 well both of those look much better than plain solid colours IMO ! 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Calculon Posted September 8, 2019 Member Contributer Share Posted September 8, 2019 I would buy a Gen 8 today if the RWB version was sold in the US. Don't really care for the Rothman's design, the top of the tank looks good and so does the tail minus that glob of yellow and the other yellow blob on the nose. And get rid of the Rothman's logo and text along the side and it would look really nice and clean... but I get that it's a racing livery. I think it looks nicer like this: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer JZH Posted September 8, 2019 Member Contributer Share Posted September 8, 2019 That looks like a Rothmans replica--after having been neutered by the Nanny State. Better to go for something somewhat different, IMHO. Ciao, JZH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Mohawk Posted September 8, 2019 Author Member Contributer Share Posted September 8, 2019 The point is a Dream Machine (excellent UK custom paint co) paint job is included in the price. So if you don't want some elements you can have that. They are offering other designs to, so if you have one that you like you can have that instead ! 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better to go for something somewhat different, IMHO. Ciao, JZH I had no idea Rothmans was a tobacco company, totally get your Nanny State comment. I just looked at the overall design, it looked good to me minus that logo and text, that's all. I get now what it is and why some may have some allegiance but it means nothing to me. 5 hours ago, Mohawk said: The point is a Dream Machine (excellent UK custom paint co) paint job is included in the price.

Member Contributer VFROZ Posted September 13, 2019 Member Contributer Share Posted September 13, 2019 Nice bike. The Rothmans colour always did suit Hondas. Here is my old 1000F, I regret getting rid of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
