It would be interesting to see Honda's full line up as a means to compare what ones remain, I would guess sales figures would be the bottom line. I would think the semi conductors available could be tailored to the best sellers and I can't see Honda being cut short design wise when it comes to emissions. Watch prices rise accordingly as Honda cashes in like the rest of the global conglomerates

A trifecta of Pre-Unit Bullets: a Red Deluxe 500, a Green Standard 500, and a Black ES 350.

@ # 00: Looks like there are already Chinese "Gap fillers" pre-positioned. Likely THEY don't have a chip shortage... ;D
My Pre-Unit Bullets have chips too, but usually just paint-related.  :o 8)
