As for Killboy, he did his best but when the planets are aligned only hindsight provides a solution.

Well, here she is. Almost done, waiting on some tires. Went with a pirelli Mt90 in the back and an MT60 RS in front. I'll let you guys know how they are. Then I need to gut the cat and send the header out for powder coat, but I'll do that this winter.

I love the forum, but facebook can be fun for quickly sharing photos and stuff.

Here is a facebook page I started for the CB1100.

https://www.facebook.com/hcb1100

There is another one I know of also, feel free to share any other CB1100 pages I would like to join them I cant seem to get enough.......

Hi Everyone,
I have a Dynojet AutoTune AT-200 which comes with a BOSCH O2 Wideband Sensor ( M18 Thread ). Unfortunately our Bikes use M12. I have an aftermarket Titanium Header (MotoGear Black Ti from Mr. T) and really would like to avoid welding a M18 Bung, which obviously would be a pain ... Just think about TI Welding and Black paint ..... Yikes

Does anyone know if the Arrows Header has a M12 or M18 for the O2 Sensor

thank you very much in advance

It's been insufferably hot and dry for weeks here but last night we got some much needed rain and this morning broke cool and overcast, time to ride. Our route took us to the southwest part of the county along roads we have not visited recently. About an hour into our ride the skies darkened and we decided to head home. About 5 miles from home it started raining. Turning onto our dirt, almost muddy road, I discovered that the PR3's are not good off road tires. Pam had no trouble on her V-strom and Trail Wing tires but I slowed a bit and avoided the muddy spots. Did manage to find another old abandoned farmhouse.

Trying to see if anyone have both these - CB1100 Vs R1200R
Iam coming off a FJR & Have a exchange offer from a private party.
I did ride both, but it was on different days & for less than 5 Miles.

As i remember CB is much easier to ride (That's the reason iam replacing FJR, as i dont do any touring & its too much for my occasional < 100 Mile Sunday trips).

Any comments?

...well, at least for now? Finally got the Staintune exhaust installed, and I actually can't think of anything else I'd like to add to my bike right now! It's a miracle! Hallelujah!

If you've seen my other recent pictures, you know that I decided to go with kind of a "Superbike" look with my '13. Not a really radical change from stock, but a little more of a late '70s - early '80s feel to it, of bikes that I loved back then. And it's about where I want it to be now - and still completely comfortable for me, with no compromises for the sake of a "look".

So, the goodies list includes:
Red side covers
MIZ front fender
Road Comet fairing w/ smoked windscreen
Moriwaki frame sliders
CRG style clutch and brake levers
CB 500 mirrors
Chrome chainguard
Metal ('14) sprocket cover
K & H High Double seat
Metalmaven license plate/rear reflector kit
Staintune muffler
...seems like I'm forgetting something, but that should be most of it.

Completed the MSF Advanced Rider Course at NIU yesterday. The instructors were great and I came away with more riding techniques than I had and more confidence in handling the CB. Highly recommend the course to anyone.

hi all, everyone here seems to be well versed in motorcycling and also the vote taken for cb1100 riders on this forum shows that i do fall with the majority, so i am going to do a brain dump... please validate or convince me that i am wrong.

i want a reliable hassle free bike that will start when i want it to start, have a linear throttle response, naked and good classic styling. i will be parking the bike with no-garage, under covers and in a covered garage during winter. in short i wanted a honda accord of bikes...

so i started with honda cb500f, but that felt too small and i do have a buell blast which is a 500cc; the nc700x was too high for me and a little over engineered.

ducati scramble was cool looking but spotty performance and very temperamental when it comes to maintenance (not hassle free)

i do not want to ride triumphs or other such bikes (too many people i know have them)...

then i rode the bmw r nine t; wanted to buy it, fabulous looking bike, rides well etc; but again i am worried about how it will hold up to my careless maintenance and msrp of $15k was a bit much. the bmw f800r similarly seemed too much.

yamaha fz09 was fun to ride, but a little too peppy (even owners steer people away from its uneven performance) and the insurance quotes are way too high...

finally i saw the cb1100 and loved the looks; seems a bit heavy but seems handlable; i am looking for 1 bike to rule them all; i will never be a dirt biker; nor do any wheelies; i will go out on weekend rides with friends and maybe overnight trips; i will drive into the city maybe once or twice a week during summers...

also i have not ridden a cb1100 as there are no demo bikes... would have loved a cb750; but i only want to buy a new nike...

any reason why i should not buy the cb100?

for those of you who drink wine; i am not looking for a fantastic but temperamental super tuscan; or a fancy bordeaux or an overengineered aussie wine; but a easy drinking california merlot that tastes good year on year... or more like a high quality blended scotch as opposed to single malts... (nothing wrong with a 16 year old lagavulin, but for everyday drinking with lots of ice in the backyard, a chivas will do)...

thanks for indulging me...

hi all, i am looking to buy the cb1100; all the dlx are sold out so it has to be a 2014 std black; beautiful none the less.

i will be commuting in to a large city with tons of traffic; is this a sane choice? will it be too heavy?

i am a returning rider; currently owning a buell blast.

Edit: of course will be taking it out on weeeknds and potential "long rides"; i want one bike that does it all; not 5 bikes to do 5 specialized things...
