Honda loses out big time by not having the support of factory accessories. I've added a wind shield, RLET's, and GPS mount. I've been waiting for news from Mr. T for K & H to release a tall seat for the 2014. Then I may add some other farkles. But honestly, my Harley Freewheeler arrived late in the season and has eaten up about $4000 in custom accessories. I may not have any left for the Honda!!
Honda would have gotten that money first if they had had the bling...
!00% Factory stock. No plans to ever change anything.
Only minor changes so far; SW engine guards and a Fenda Extenda.
Oh yes, I did remove the gas tank stickers.
Mine's bone stock except for sticker removal. Why mess with perfection?
Ok, I give...what does "RLET" stand for? And, no, mine isn't stock either! In fact, in came from the dealer with a Yoshimura slip-on installed. I was doomed to fall into the modification trap from the start!

So far Two stockers lol..
Wow Damfino.. The Motor Company sure knows how to profit, don't they?
Do they ever!! Or you could also say...."A fool and his money....."
All I've added to my CB so far has been a Corbin seat and a windshield. I do still use the stock seat from time to time. But I have plans to deal with the less than optimal suspension at both ends and have some Rox pull back's on hand to improve handlebar reach. Honda CB 1100's are superb bikes, but are not perfect as delivered from the factory. That animal probably doesn't exist in the market.

Entirely stock with the exception of the HISS sticker which I don't consider as part of the original design.
I have been thinking about replacing the rear shocks with some Öhlins, but the more I think about it the less likely that is. I suppose the rear suspension could use some improvement, but I am concerned that the bike will lose its beautiful balance if I change those. I will then begin to notice more that perhaps the forks could be improved upon, and then the chassis etc. When it comes down to it, I find it perfect as it is. It is not a race bike, and so the fact that I can feel its limits when pushing it is actually part of the design. It is telling me that I should probably not push any harder, and instead just enjoy the ride.
