Hello everyone,
I have a low mile 2016 CB1100 EX, which I am very pleased with. Got the opportunity to buy a low mile 2019 model, but I have never ridden it yet. Any pro’s or con’s?
We didnt get anything past 2017 here in the states.
Hey Lars, welcome to the Forum.
Lars, welcome to the forum.
The only con's I know is if you don't buy the 2019, so good luck!
Remember Lars to share an image to the Forum so folks can gawk 'n' drool.

There are currently a lot of used CB1100s for sale in Canada, but I think the 2017 model year cut-off applies to all of North America.

Mine's a '19. No problems to report in its first 6,000 kms. Let me know if you have any questions.
I love the dual bending valve front forks on the 2017MY onwards, I found a new appreciation for them after buying a GS which has very poor high speed damping. The dual bending valve tries to smooth the forks transition from low speed to high speed damping, I think it is very effective. After than that is it really just looks, different amount of spokes and the tank etc. One the whole I can't imagine the experience will be radically different, mainly visual.

Ok, thanks for reply. Manufacturers always get new set of “rules” from governments, to reduce emissions. So I was wondering if there were made any changes regarding air flow/filter, carburatiin etc. which in our opinion have a negative effect, thus pointing to keep the 2016 model.
