Lemme start by saying, I love my CB1100 and likely will keep it for the foreseeable future. That said, I always have a bug for a new toy (my gut tells me I'm not alone). If you were to get rid of your CB and get a new bike what would it be? Ohhh for me (at the moment) I'd get a HD Fat Bob (and switch the forward controls to mids). Thanks for weighing in!!!
If the XSR900 would have been in the $7.5K range (what I paid for my CB in Feb 2016), I would have gone that direction. However, I also hadn't done my research and wish I would have waited. I love the CB, but coming from a ZX-6R has been quite an adjustment.

I've figured out that I want the looks of the CB1100 with the sport ride of the FZ-09, hence, the XSR900. Motogeezer (fellow Central FL rider) has me as green as my old Kawi with envy.

Edit - in no way do I think the XSR is as good looking as the CB1100. However, they are both in a similar style for what I was looking for. Neo-retro vs modern classic.
Thruxton R if it was a bit larger. I just don't fit on it.
Maybe a Moto Guzzi Roamer or a 2009-10 Buell XB12ss.
I did in April and replaced it with a 2016 VStrom 650 thinking function over form but I couldn't pass up the chance to come back.
Downgrade but I'd buy a Grom. I so rarely get out of the city these days I think the grom would be fun and I'd be able to keep my foot in the motorcycle world.
GSX-S1000F ABS
R9T
XSR 900
new Bonneville T120
V7 II (if it fit)
Easy one, a Motus. If I could come up with the cash.
My CB isn't going anywhere, but if you talk adding a stablemate, I'd consideran NC700, a SFV650 (2017),or 650 Vstrom, or a BMW R 1200R (2012 or 2013) right off the top of my head
