Any of you guys have the stock shocks off the bike? if you do can you tell me the ID of the upper and lower mounting eyes.Also does anyone know the spring rate.

It's home! Not much of a ride in today, due to rainy, crappy, weather. But it is everything you all have said it is. Couple miles from the dealer, looked down and caught myself doing 75! Didn't feel like 75! (I'm used to my old 1976 CB750 ) Weather is supposed to get better tomorrow, so riding is definitely in my future!!

Cheers fellow CB owners!!

Installed the ECU put the key in, no FI codes (phew) started her up and idle was perfect still no FI codes

Warmed the bike up and checked the limiter ( see pic ) limiter is gone, there will be a time and place to check it, today was not the day.

Realized gains:
Stock 0-60 4.2 0-100 8.9
Flashed 0-60 3.7 0-100 8.3
I figured on these gains with the timing retard gone.

Whats impressive is the throttle response at 1/4 and 1/2 opening in lower gears. You just have to touch the throttle and the bike responds.

I assume i will be getting better fuel mileage and will report after a few tanks at normal riding conditions.

The front wheel gets real loose in first gear but not off the ground, same as my GS1100 but does not make the crazy power on top. HP gains i think are minimal, if i had to guess i would say about 5hp on top but more in the lower gear mid-range.

I think there's more to get out of the motor with a dyno tune, but I'm very happy with the way it runs now. Fueling is still spot on with no dead spots.

We'll that's it in a nut shell, I hope this helps those who are interested.

Edit: almost forgot, on off throttle response is sooooo much better

Had my 2014 less than one month now, and just passed 1,000 miles. Today I turned the key and what used to be a gentle, hushed hum of the electric fuel pump beneath the fuel tank as the instruments cycle through their start-up routine, has suddenly become much, much louder. If you put your ear on the fuel tank and listen as you turn the key you still hear what sounds like the original, gentle hum of an electric motor, but it is joined by a much louder buzz that sounds like a solenoid valve that is defective and is attempting to cycle at about 60 hertz, which is so loud it creates a resonance in the fuel tank (and the fuel tank is 3/4+ full). Has anybody else experienced a similar situation? I guess it's back to the dealer, again.

...just to ride some more? Normally my commute is over by the time the engine's warmed up.

I'm not sure why I didn't think of this before, but my commute just got a way more fun.

I could almost wake up an hour early just to do a morning run.

*Edit* Disguise locations

Im 56 years old and I just figured out what Milf means

Bad news is the way we made them I'd need a min 20 pair order at 100 a pair to make it break even.
Or a 5000 order and send to china at 30 a pair.

I’d like to find a reputable Honda dealer in close proximity to me. I live almost equidistant between South Austin and downtown San Antonio, TX. I-35 Honda in New Braunfels would be the ideal location for me in logistical terms. However, I’ve determined from my own personal experience that their dealership is probably not being revered for it's outstanding reputation. IOW... I will not buy from I-35 Honda in New Braunfels for personal reasons.

So my next (3) closest Honda dealers would be as follows:
.. 1. Kent Powersports of SA – in Selma (@ 27.5 miles)
.. 2. Kent Powersports of Austin – in Kyle (@ 31 miles)
.. 3. Alamo Cycle-Plex – NW San Antonio (@ 39 miles)

I’d appreciate any and all related input… good, bad or indifferent. The last time I bought a new Honda was in 2001, so I’m pretty much out of the loop. I’m no longer familiar with who the “good dealers” are. Please share your recommendation or comments based on personal experience with any of the (3) dealers on my list. What I’ll want most... scratch that... need most, is “service after the sale”.

TIA,

...the Moriwaki skid pads? I'm wondering if it's possible to rest your feet on them to relax your legs on a long expressway jaunt.

I'm also drooling over the ChicDesign long front fender (in chrome). The standard, stubby CB1100 fender is definitely NOT retro. I love the clutch cover with the window in it. Serves no purpose, but would be cool to watch your clutch spinning around - only when stopped, of course. Reminds me of the see-thru bevel drive cover all the Ducati guys put on their bikes in the good old days before Ducati went rubber.
