I'm almost as upset about the pricing as the rest of you guys but there's one important difference: I couldn't afford a Cub back then, not even a used one. I can easily afford a new one now, and I think it's people like that that they're aiming this bike at: an entry level ride with real world utility for nostalgic newbies with money.

Woodsrat made the point about Kymco selling bikes to a different demographic than intended, I think with this pricing we're seeing Honda fully aware of which demographic they're going to resonate with.
