In case someone was wondering about the 2-tone look.

After the first two fill-ups I'm averaging 47.7 miles per gallon. No hard running yet - just varying the RPM range - nothing over 6K. I did put a Slipstream Windshield on and it seems to be slicing a nice pocket of air. I do get a bit of air around my helmet, but still a nice place to be. It may be helping. With the engine so tight still - I'm very happy so far.

Looks great and sounds stock, w/o a converter.

Not sure but I think duels look better then quad?
I canceled my Two Tails, looking for complete system now.

Hey Dudes. So, I think the CB1100 is going to stay around a while longer. I love looking at it. As a piece of art, its magnificent, no matter how boring it might be from time to time.

Now, in an attempt to help that bore factor, I'm going to take a stab at something I've never really dabbled with; exhaust fabrication. See, I can't spend the $600 for a Moriwaki, no matter how much I like it. However, I've got an Emgo universal muffler that was on my CB350 and vibrated off. Now, since the 350 needs rings anyway, I was thinking of pilfering the muffler, making a flexible conduit midpipe or something, and fixing it to the 1100. It looks the era, should add some bark, and is certainly within budget. It won't be the quality of the Moriwaki, but hey, my first stab at this. Anyway, wish me luck.

Hey guys! So I installed new bars today and bar end mirrors. Silver tiniest rise available renthal bars.






Next up should be the aluminum cowling !

Looking to remove my handle bars and replace them today. I'm sure ill figure it out but if anyone has a walk through that would help speed the process up a bit

Thanks!

A quick 60 miler after work to O'Neal Pass 6785 feet. 3000 feet of elevation gained in 30 miles.

Well, like the title says, I got my first rock chip. Just over 6 weeks at 1900ish miles. Got it on the commute to or from work, knew it was coming since I drive on the interstate so much. Now my bike has personal character I guess.
