Saw this ad and I think the bike looks great. Would be cool for Honda to add something to the lineup in the "Dyna" category to me.. BUT

Why the heck are they only releasing it with a DCT so far?? Looks cool with the Batwing to me.. the bike maybe a little small looking to me more like a sportster category but I'd love to test ride one of those Rebel 1100s. If my 6ft 260lb body fits on it I think it would be a cool bagger option to stay in the Honda family without jumping ship to a Indian Chief or Harley low rider.

Anyone on here have a Rebel 1100 that can weigh in? Wonder how successful that 1100 line is going as a cruiser that doesn't feel small or underpowered?

Thinking I would like to lower the back of my 2013 CB1100 for a more cruiser feel (yea I could have bought a cruiser but love the look of the 1100.....brings me back to the 70s LOL Ive already made more of a forward control system (old legs dont bend)
Anyone done this or suggestions ? other than buying a different bike..

Bought my 2013 CB1100 used back in Sept. Was in the garage planning on some upgrades for spring (hard saddlebags) . My CB1100 has the red tank and Im wondering why they put the side covers in SILVER ???? Cant for the life of me figure why they didnt paint them red ???
So, when I get my hard bags ready to paint the matching red I will do the side covers also !
Yes this has bothered me ever since I bought the bike, so now I have a reason to fix it !

On today's 52-mile ride, at about the 40 mile mark I was running 45 mph and came up behind some slower traffic. I pulled the clutch in and started down shifting and the bike stalled. As a was rolling I let out the clutch and it bump started and continued running. A few miles later I came up behind a school bus and same thing, pulled in the clutch started downshifting and the bike stalled, but bump started. When I pulled into my drive it happened a 3rd time. I hit the kill switch off and on and the bike started and idled normally. I waited a half hour went out and started the bike and it idled normally.

So what do you guys think is going on?

Hello

My battery got drained during Christmas, I think manly because the previous owner installed a dash camera, anyway, I tried to jump start the motorbike and it starts but then it stops after few seconds, when the jump starter gets off the bikes goes down (It switch on and off as it is charged)

Any ideas? Thank you so much in advance.

So, thanks to JLEECB for picking up my recently listed jacket (last holdout from my skinny days), and a promotional gift card (Thanks Ford!), I had some new gear money in the piggy bank.

I thought this was interesting... the Scorpion Stealthpack. I like that it's a light color for commuting, but I didn't expect that it would be so light that it's practically off-white. The interesting part is that the back opens to form a built-in back pack. Just the thing for when all I need to carry is a laptop and lunch.

As long as I don't fall on my back...

I feel like I'm in the Twilight Zone right now and just want to vent.

I've been insured with USAA for 36 years, and have all of my vehicles and house covered with my policy.

Last year, when I bought the CB300R, I added it to my policy with no problems. This past October, when I started getting the itch to get a different bike, I called to get quotes on a few different models, and was told "When you're ready to add that new bike, just give us a call." No problem.

Today, I called USAA to add the Royal Enfield, and was told that I could not add the bike to my policy. California law had changed a few years ago, and now, all registered drivers in the family must be endorsed motorcyle riders to add a bike to a policy. This is because my wife has access to the motorycles in the household, and might ride them, even though she is not licensed.

I was dumbfounded. I asked if the law had changed a few years ago, how was I able to add the CB300R just last year with no problems. And, in October, why was I given quotes on bikes, and told "just add your new bike when you're ready" ? I was told that they had made an error in letting the new bike be added last year, and that I was misinformed during my call in October.

The representative was apologetic, but said that there was nothing he could do, as it was a law. I maintained a calm tone of voice, but it was clear that I was getting upset. I asked to speak to a supervisor, and was told "I can transfer you to a supervisor, but he will not be able to change this situation." He did, and I went back and forth with a supervisor for several minutes.

At the end of the conversation, I was told that I would be allowed to keep my current bikes on my policy, although the last one was admittedly added by mistake, and as I was misinformed during my last call, that the person I spoke with, who said I would be able to add another motorcycle to my policy "would be coached" to avoid making the same mistake in the future. But, there was no way I could add the new bike to my policy.

I was livid. I maintaned my composure as best I could, and said that this was of no help to me, and wanted some sort of resolution. The supervisor said "The only thing I can do is refer you to an outside carrier that USAA works with, who may be able to help you get your motorycle insured on a non-USAA policy. He transferred me.

The next voice I heard was "Thank you for calling USAA, this is Steve, how can I help you?" I asked who Steve worked for. "This is USAA". Not an outside company? "No, this is USAA. Can I help you?"

I then explained the conversations I had with the two people I had just spoken with, and said that all I wanted to do was add my new motorycle to my USAA policy. "No problem sir, I see you've been with us for 36 years." He asked for all of the details about the Enfield, confirmed my coverages, and gave me the premium information.

"Ok, are you ready to add the new bike to your policy?" No problem whatsoever. I asked him to confirm once again that he was with USAA, and to describe the other vehicles on my policy. He named them all off, and what each was covered for.

"Steve, how did I just have two heated conversations with a representative, and a supervisor with USAA, and told that there was no way I could add this bike to my policy, while you were able to do so with no problems?" "I don't know, sir, no problem on my end, your bike is now covered." I asked him to prove it.... "No problem, check your email, and you'll see your new USAA proof of insurance card."

"Ok, Steve, can you look at my record, and see if I'm now tagged as a difficult customer in the USAA system for any reason, based on the two conversations I just had before I spoke with you?" "Nothing here, sir. I wouldn't worry about it. You've been a valuable customer for many years."

Right now I'm exhausted, shaking, and have a massive headache. What just happened?
