As some of you may know, I had a slight fender bender on I-26 last May on my way to Asheville, Nc. I was headed there for a couple of days riding before I headed up to Barea, Ky. for the rally. Well, my traffic court date was last week on the 9th, and the Aman was kind enough to put me up for a couple of days, and show me around that part of the woods. I have been in that area before, but I never got to ride the back roads. So I was grateful to have him show me around. One of my favorite roads was Nc 80. Very low traffic, and nice a twisty. Here are a few photos from that trip. [url=https://imgur.com/rDDTVLp][url=https://imgur.com/IaVx6UT][url=https://imgur.com/Ra4ujOt]

I noticed this AM as I was getting ready for my commute that the CB1100 rear blinkers weren't constantly on like the front ones. By that I mean the rear turn indicators work when I activate them but they aren't on like running lights. Whereas the front ones are on all the time and will blink when I need them to. Is this normal?

Rear brake light works fine...on all the time...and when brake activated gets brighter

I find myself needing to find a more comfortable bike to ride with my wife. She used to ride her CBR500R, but can no longer do so for medical reasons. The CB1100 just doesn't have enough room or support for our 350 combined pounds, so it is time to acquire a dedicated two-up machine.

At this point, I'm debating between the Indian Springfield, Harley Road King, and Honda Valkyrie. I test rode a Springfield and was pleasantly surprised by its smooth ride and handling. The Harley seems like a similar alternative. The Valkyrie seems like it could offer similar comfort with more power.

For those of you that appreciate the beauty and quality of the CB1100, what is your preferred motorcycle for two-up riding?

Bought the kit for a 1979 cb750. Attached it to my seat pan.

Got bored and figured i would change things up lol. Figured the seat would push me back more but instead i am a little further forward. It would be perfect if the controls were a little further forward as well. Passenger seat is awesome, fit is super snug

Hi All,

There is a BMW r 1200 rt for sale around here with 25k miles for not quite $9k. Does anyone have experience with these? I have been thinking about these for a long time for touring for me and the missus.

I bought mine on a whim just to give it a try and I must say it's a hoot to ride. It's like riding a gokart on the street.

if you install single side exhaust on 2017 CB with two(2) O2 sensors.
what should be done with left side O2 sensor?just disconnect?that can't be right?

Ok people here it goes put key in bike turned key every thing came on and then died the needle stop at 3/4 ON THE GLAS CAN ANY HELP ME THANK U VERY MUCH AND GOD BLESS U.

Two months ago. after keeping my new CB1100 EX for six weeks, my local dealer replaced the taillight housing assembly. They said that the original two-piece housing was loose and floppy due to stripped threads. The replacement unit was nice and solid. Problem solved.

Well, for a month or so, anyway. After this weekend's ride I checked the taillight, and it was loose and floppy. Obviously, the plastic threads for the mounting screws had failed again.

I just took the bike back to the same dealer. After performing a brief inspection, they called Honda to report that the replacement assembly had failed in the exact same manner as the original piece. Honda is going to send them another taillight housing, and they want the dealer to send back the failed piece so they can inspect it.

The dealer is rightly a bit p.o.'d at Honda. They know Honda is going to send them another identical assembly, with plastic threads. This piece will surely fail again, and will continue to fail until Honda replaces the plastic threads with metal parts. Honda informed the dealer that yes, they have had other reports of failed taillight housings on this model, but this is the first time their replacement assembly also failed.

The dealer and I agree that Honda needs to issue a formal recall to replace this assembly with a sturdier unit. Simply replacing the unit over and over with the same flawed piece serves no good purpose. We also agree that there doesn't seem to be any sound reason for making the housing a two-piece unit in the first place. All the previous-year CB1100 models have single-piece taillight assemblies. Nothing can wobble, because there are no joined assemblies.

I'm genuinely surprised by this series of events. Squealing brakes and poorly designed taillight housings, on a high-dollar/corporate-pride showpiece like the CB1100EX? This is so wildly uncharacteristic of Honda.

It's a good thing the rest of the bike is so excellent. If everything else on this bike didn't work so beautifully, I would be losing patience with Honda over these small, niggling design flaws.

I need some help and advice,
I have 2017 and I can buy 1st gen Wyvern exhaust for a great price,

What needs to be done to fit that exhaust to 2017?I know 2017 has 2 O2 sensors,that exhaust just single one,mounting points/brackets?

thanks
