just came across this thread and although the official 25 Special edition 1200 BB's were indeed carbed models (as Honda would not give them the code for the ECM) I have 2 theories
1. The V&M team did a one off unofficial FI using the same engine internals and other mods but used a powercomander to map the injection...... or
2. Some independant has taken an FI BB and carried out this work themselves and modelled it to look like the official V&M model
either way it ammounts to one hell of a machine and extremely rare
Why couldn't Honda do something like this - perhaps they have drawn the line and decided producing a 200mph production sport tourer is pointless and htey may be right.
