Has anyone out there done the floor of their Honda 600 in something
like "rhino-lining"?

The rhino-lining that you mention is very durable but extremely rough. Carpet is a better way to go but you can always use some sound deadening material like dyna-mat underneath it.

Please excuse me for asking, but why?

I am considering the same thing.  The why is, seals in or prevents rust, extremely durable, cuts down on road and engine noise, and makes floor look clean.  You can buy a can of this stuff for around 100.00.

Kevin;
Ok, I will go along with sound and noise reduction, not much, but some. Now the down side; It's heavy, so heavy you should look at just carrying around a bag of sand.  The stuff is thick if you want any sound reduction.  You can't put down much by the peddles because it will keep you from putting the peddles down all the way, you have to add carpet and pad.
A much better way to seal and keep the weight down is remove the rust, look at POR 15, and some sound reducing pad under your carpet.
But, most of the noise is coming in through the heater ducts and air venting.  Open a window and there it goes.

I gotcha, I was just thinking about it, maybe  doing parts car after doing my good 600.  Not sold on it, it seems to be popular in trucks.  Hey Bill, since I have your attention, what is the closest color to stock for painting wheels on a coupe, i.e. rattle can color.  Also, I am doing a valve adjustment this weekend and wondering if Honda or anyone else carries valve cover gaskets.
