Best "early or old school" sport bike

I'll attest to the CB being a DAMNED DURABLE and bulletproof platform. when I bought mine, it just needed minor cleaning and synch of the carbs after sitting 5 years, fresh fuel, and a little oil change. I revved that thing into 11k on the tach a few times, and it didnt even give me a hint of trouble.

the CB series bikes, IMO, are some of the finest old school machines you can lay hands on because of that. I regret selling mine now.

only complaint was it had a single piston caliper, and could have really benefited from a 2+ piston up on the front, and maybe a 2nd rotor.
