I usually go CB riding almost all every weekend even in Winter and Summer but I have decided I don’t ride for a while because the heat this Summer is crazy.
Japanese Summer is so hot, in addition it’s too humid.
So riding on sunny day in the Summer is not comfortable even if I go to a seaside ways.
Although I basically ride but I can’t ride this Summer because the temperature is always 95F or higher and too humid for a long long time.
I actually went to a mountain road last weekend but it was pretty uncomfortable when I was riding in town’s roads.
Of course it was comfortable when I was riding on the mountain road but when I got home it changed to hell.
I haven’t thought I cannot ride in Summer.
Anyway, I have never experienced that hot Summer here in Japan.
I hope it gets cooler soon.
I forgot adding a picture.
It's been a crazy summer here too, until last weekend.
Low 90s, very humid, no rain.
Last weekend was beautiful, high 70s, low humidity, little rain.
I rode all day, both days.
Better weather will come to Japan soon.

Hi Chapomis.
Your area too? Wow!
I really hope it gets cool soon but unfortunately weather forecast says it will continue until October. Boooo..
This month our average temp has been 86.6 with high humidity and lots of rain. The last 2 days have been nice though, then we are back in the steam bath.
Ride early or late when it's a little cooler.

Hi The ferret.
I can be patient if only high temperature but the humidity is too terrible here in Japan.
Of course in the early morning or night are better than the daytime but even so it is uncomfortable because of the high humidity.
Although I will ride again soon even if too hot because I won't be able to be patient no riding. Ha ha ha
I didn't even know there were other color options in different countries when I bought my bike, but I absolutely love the look of your white CB with the chrome... I wish that was an option in the US.
It has been over 90 degrees for what seems like months in my neck of the woods... hopefully we will all catch a break from the heat and humidity soon!
Rhinosaurus, check out the Japanese Honda website for the CB1100 [url=http://www.honda.co.jp/CB1100/]here and see the range of colours available in that country.

Hi Rhinosaurus.
Thanks for your message.
I have liked this white color since I bought it but now, nobody can buy the white color anymore except DLX model.

Hi Cormanus.
I have been surprised because the white model except DLX is not sold here in Japan.
So nobody can buy it anymore.
I think HONDA should continue to sell the white model too.
Japanese car makers and motorcycle makers sometimes change their models strangely.
