Hey Chromehead !
The Yamaha XS750 was shaft drive(Yamaha's equal to the K75 standard ?)and to me it was much more cutting edge (a little newer too). Still, it just looked like another universal jap bike.
Love that triple!

As for "going and going and going," well that's another market entirely. I suggest to my friends on Mercedes and BMW car forums, for example, that their cars are closer to Ferraris than they are to Camrys (or refrigerators). Same pretty much applies to BMW motorcycles..

Honda finally is getting its bike game running again after becoming a car company. The new 250s, a pair of 500s soon coming this way, this 4 cyl, the 700, etc- and it is all exactly what's needed right now. Decent stuff at decent price. Not everyone wanting a new bike can afford BMWs prices....
I am a big Honda fan, I have owned a few. Now the new Honda NC700X, that was a nice scoot at the show.
I believe those bikes were always well known for their top notch quality.
I think they (the new models) still are well known for excellent quality.
