The CB1100 Community Forum

me wants...

Oh, dear. It's started here too. There's a discussion about this bike over on the UK forum. Like the CB1100, Honda used to bring it to Australia, but then they stopped. I saw on in the flesh the other day and thought it was a lovely looking bike.

Looks too modern for my tastes. I will stay with the CB1100.

Have you seen the UN-fared model? Not that I'm going to change either.

Yes, back end is too angled and too high, no cylinder fins, radiator, giant can shaped single sided pipe with no shape. Looks like an FZ1 with no quarter fairing.

I would change the exhaust but other than that it's prime!

Oh, I'll bet it's a great bike... Just aesthetically not my cup of tea. If that and the CB 1100 were sitting side by side on a dealers floor, I wouldn't even give the 1300 a second look, even though it's undoubtedly superior from a performance perspective. Just like the superior performing CB 1000R didn't appeal to me.

I always liked the look of the CB1300, especially the red colors but have to agree with Ferret that I would like to see fins but being water cooled no need for fins I suppose.
The close, in looks is the CB1000 from the mid nineties, they are also GREAT bikes.
Still , I would buy a CB1300 in a heart beat if they came to the USA.

I would love to have one but I would not give up my CB1100.

I would rather that Honda brought back the CBX. That 6 had a most intoxicating sound and the bike was a real beauty.

After I bought a 2013 and 2014 CB1100 my wife asked if I would ever buy another new bike and I said PROBABLY not.
This can all change if the right Honda comes along.
