What's the best way to hook up a heated best on a CB1100?

Completed my 600 mile service this afternoon with the exception of the oil change (I'll pick-up oil and filter tomorrow to finish). It was my first adjustment on the chain, it was at the max and only had to do a little adjustment. The axle nut was not tight at all! Checked over everything from the list on here in the "How to Section". That's a great tool. Bike is in great shape. I did not care for the looseness of the throttle when I picked up the bike and had already adjusted that, which I checked again and it was still ok. I cleaned her up and applied a little wax. I love this bike. I have only added the rear carrier and a color matched removable top case, a Shad 37. I like the bike naked, but had to be able to secure items that I can't carry into work with me. I do have a question, If I am at speed and close the throttle I get a little surge out of the engine, Have any of you notice this? If I ease off it does not do it.

Advertised as Honda's official after market exhaust system, Moriwaki.
Very quite with a "tight" sound.
About 6+ pounds lighter than OEM.
They have a couple hundred miles on them and starting to "turn" a bit.
Good quality.

Wondering if anyone here knows what type of connector the two turn signal (2p) and the taillight (3p) connectors under the seat are (i.e. model numbers/model types/whatever) so I can order them to do a nice install for the lights for my top box.

I'd rather not just tap the wires because that's ugly; I'd prefer to fab up a harness using the OEM connectors so I can take it apart later if want to without any remnant.

This is getting ridiculous.

My latest accessory - Honda’s RED fork adjustment bolts:



Which coincidently matches the RED U-Kanaya levers:



So now the bike has a RED tank, RED side covers, RED air cleaner covers, RED fairing, RED seat piping, RED oil filler cap, RED levers, RED fork bolts.

So where can I get RED tires?

Now here is the story.

Some of you may know I was planning on selling my 1100 to buy a new BMW R9T.( A BMW in the same mold as our 1100's.)
Well, shortly after putting it up for sale on this site's pages I did a dumb thing and dinged one of the header pipes. A good size ding that didn't seem to make a difference in performance but I needed to get it fixed in order to sell it. New OEM headers are $1400 at least and I missed out on a used set on these pages for $350. Tried to low ball him.
So I emailed Takahashi to see what he had. Preferably w/o a cat but with the o2 sensor. The above set he has available and would mount up fine with my Staintune muffler. It did have a cat and o2 sensor tho. $680.00.
I received it in about 10 days, maybe less. It comes with the 4 chrome pipes separate and the chrome cat/ collector separate. Also comes with new header clamps and gasket rings as well as a small tube of "muffler grease".
Install was straight forward with good enough instructions in Japanese... Actually the pics were all that was needed. I did have trouble getting the gasket rings to collapse( seal) as they only go on one way. ( smooth side out) and require more cranking down than I would have thought was needed.
But once installed correctly what a sound. I thought it sounded good with the Staintune and stock headers. It now sounds mean. The headers are a larger size diameter than the stock ones, but most of the change is in the tiny and I do mean tiny cat conv. Maybe 20% the size of the stock one.
And the performance is startlingly better than with just the Staintune. I can't say I noticed a diff with just the Staintune, but with these headers it is self evident. Acceleration is much more instantaneous. I always felt the motor was lazy before but no more. It winds right up to redline and much quicker. Lots of fun.
Bottom line is the bike is no more for sale...

In my order of neat stuff, Samurider included 2 nice catalogs in Japanese.

Japan models in Red, Silver, White and "Black Style"

Hi all,
I am considering some small side saddle bags for my CB. Any recommendations? I think the rear turn signals might get in the way so I wanted to see if anyone has experience with them. I have a small canvas bag on the rear seat but need a little more storage and space when I have a rider with me.
Cheers!

Where can I buy the silver guage panel as shown on the bottom of this page?

I thought I saw them for sale in the spring, but now I can't find them.

What size snow chains are you guys using? I can't seem to find them on the world wide web!
