It says so right on the side of the bike



Samurider is now listing this aluminum sprocket cover for the 2014 EX.

I should find out it it fits the 2013 CB1100 tonight or tomorrow, according to my EMS shipment tracking.

I'm also real curious if the 2014 Deluxe cover is aluminum. Some of you should be getting real close to holding the keys to your 2014s. I can sense the excitment in the air.

well, if it says so on the side cover it must be so. Very rare indeed!

I like it! Should look great on a '13

You'll probably see a slight increase in gas mileage.

Very cool, CB4ME.

Is this a Honda part or an aftermarket piece for the 2014s?

I believe it is. Someone posted pics of the DLX on display at Daytona and it appeared to be wearing the aluminum cover.

According to Samurider's page, that's the OEM part for the 2014 EX model.

I hate it when they put that guide all the way down there on those covers... hard to see when riding. :-D

I don't even know why they bother anymore. Back when I started riding, it used to be standard practice to verify the shift pattern before riding a new (to you) bike. There wasn't a firm standard. Nowadays, everything is 1 down and 4 or 5 up.

Heck I remember when you weren't even sure which side you shifted on. Sometimes it was on the right, sometimes on the left.

Roger that. I learned to ride on a right-side shifted Sportster. Apparently HD built them for flat-track racing. Switching to a Yamaha as my second bike damn near killed both if us.
