The new Honda 1100EX look is a homage to the bikes of the 1970s. The round headlamp and twin dials and the new fuel tank with no visible welds are reminiscent of the Honda models of the past.

A touch of modernity is added by the front and rear LED lights, which are a real contrast to the spoked 18-inch stainless steel wheels.
