The CB1100 Community Forum

The Bolt and the Guzzi V7 were on my short list when shopping for my CB..I finally sat on a Bolt, very nice...Maybe my wife will sell her 800lb HD for a Bolt..Good choice!!!!

She's in love with it, she sold her RaodStar to get it to lighten the load a bit, she's only 5' 1" and this fits her like a glove

They do go very nicely together, but you need a bigger garage.

A friend of mine texted me tonight. He was at a Honda Yamaha dealer in N/E Ohio today. They have their original CB 1100 on the floor, but have sold 11 Bolts.

The BOLTS are selling well I am told.

Not too surprising as the cruise image is still going strong. But they don't handle nearly as well as the CB1100 (or any non-cruiser for that matter) and they're small.

I have issues with small bikes. 36" inseam, just under 6' tall (used to be taller), long arms. I need a larger machine so I don't have to fold up like a grasshopper. I fit a 650L pretty good!

Don't know where all these short people are coming from and buying up all these bikes. I thought we were getting taller?

I like the looks of the BOLT and almost went that route but it just felt small when I sat on it... My feet on the pegs I was pushing back into the seat and was not comfortable. But I do like the look...

Anyhow, I got an 1100, what am I thinking about...

Love that Bolt too. Worried about that engine placement next to my legs but it sure is a pretty bike. I wouldn't mind having one in the garage either.

Oh it does look nice though. Yamaha hit some hot buttons there.

Nice..! Congrats to Deb !
