I rode the CB bikes in the mid 70s to the mid 80s, last was a CB650 bought off the dealer floor. Went through the adventure bike phase and in the last decade went to the cruiser bikes. Never a favorite of mine, I always pined for another CB. Well I am looking at a dealer where they have a '13 CB 1100 ABS demo on the floor. Clean, 9k miles, new BattleAxe tires, 1 year Honda warranty. $7999 out the door. Wouldn't know that the bike was a Honda demo at all by looking at it. I've been on the '14 model and the suburban and back roads I drive wouldn't make the 6speed tranny a must, especially since my recent bike was a 5 speed. I'm just a 55 year old fat guy reliving my earlier days. So, what's the overall opinion on this suggested ride?

So I had my first experience on grooved (milled) pavement and I absolutely did not like it. I found I could maybe handle 35 or 40 mph, but anything more was just too uncomfortable. Then later that day it started raining and I followed a Harley (from my truck) that was clocking 50 mph on wet grooved pavement.
So what's the deal. Am I chicken or was the Harley pilot crazy?
